This is because of the problem I wrote in the previous mail.

There was a bug in setting a font for Greek in the default
fontset.  I've just fixed it both for EMACS_23_1_RC and the
trunk.

There was a silly bug in handling a preferred charset in
fontset_find_font.  I've installed a fix for the trunk.  For
EMACS_23_1_RC branch, I'm now trying to find a smaller
change.

Anyway, could you please check the problems 2 and 3 with the
CVS trunk code?
