bug#3659: FW: 23.0.95; crash on set-frame-font

[Marshall, Simon]

Guys, I waited as I wasn't quite sure if we went thru a diversion on
this thread or not.

In any case, 23.0.96 still has the crash on set-frame-font introduced
between 2009-05-21 (ok) and 2009-05-22 (coredump).

I tried, but I ran into dependency problems, and I could not get
everything to work right. If the conclusion is that the system I used
is odd or too old (though it passes all the configure tests), that's
fine by me.

Simon's problem might be different though. Sorry for the diversion!
