This is because internal-merge-in-global-face (which is called in the
middle of face-set-after-frame-default) merges in the face vector from
face-new-frame-defaults without updating the `font' frame parameter.

Every other place that changes the font uses set-face-attribute, which
updates the `font' parameter correctly.

I suppose we could change internal-merge-in-global-face to update the
frame parameters itself, instead of adding a separate line in faces.el
to do it.
