Agreed, it looks like descent has the wrong sign.

(a) font->props[2] names the font, so:

  (gdb) pp font->props[2]

should display its name in human-readable form.  To have the "pp"
command in GDB, you need to issue the command

  (gdb) source /path/to/emacs/src/.gdbinit

before you type the above.

(b) Given your list of features, which includes XFT, I think you want
to set a breakpoint in xftfont_open, where there's a call to
XftFontOpenPattern.

Thanks.
