That's probably not the solution ... it's just a part! IMO, based on  
heuristics, it would work with less asterisks in XLFD, i.e. when they  
are substituted with real values.

I have in ~/.Xdefaults the definition of a fontset, and this fontset  
is then used as value for the Emacs.Font resource. GNU Emacs 21.3.50  
does not like it when the fontset has too many asterisks ...

If you don't find it in the index, look very carefully through the  
entire catalogue.
