That doesn't look right; 109818 is a doc fix to compile.el.

This makes no sense either; Dmitry's patch does not touch any part of
the code which can affect the behavior you're describing. Are you sure
you are bisecting correctly?

I guess openSUSE is still catering to pre-Xft (< 23.1) Emacs. You
should be able to safely remove the Emacs.Font setting (or do
`xrdb -remove'), so that Emacs uses xft fonts by default.
