[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
[ Disclaimer: I'm not sure this bug is legitimate, as it is about an
emacs feature (--daemon) which is not even yet documented. Feel free
to close it as bogus; I'm reporting it in the hope it is useful
feedback ]
I'm routinely using "emacsclient -c" against a main Emacs which have
a (server-start) in its ~/.emacs to start the Emacs server by
default. Everything is fine in that setting.
However, if instead of using a main Emacs I use an Emacs demonized
with --daemon, then the clients started by "emacsclient -c" start
properly, but they ignore setting about font faces.
For reference, the customized faces I'm using have been set using
Custom, here is the relevant sexp from my ~/.emacs:
(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.

I found the problem. Viper loads advice, which loads help-fns.el, which
defines the `help-argument-name' face. In daemon mode, this causes this
face to be defined out of order, before the foreground and background
colors are initialized. This can be solved by moving
`help-argument-name' into faces.el.
I've checked the fix into CVS trunk.
