Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the [email-masked] mailing 
list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I would like to know what happened with Emacs default font, see images 
attached in this email.

I've just downloaded Emacs via CVS and compiled (see image emacs-new.png):

GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.8.20)
 of 2008-10-05 on debian-hfit

My old Emacs was (see image emacs-old.png):

GNU Emacs 23.0.60.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.8.20)
 of 2008-05-26 on debian-hfit

My ~/.Xresources file is:

Mozilla*font:fixed
Firefox*font:fixed
Emacs*font:fixed

Why the new Emacs default font is proportional instead of monospaced?

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/home/download/emacs/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
