Subject: 23.0.60; set-fontset-font doesn't work for ascii charset

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 emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

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

run emacs without any extra settings: runemacs.exe -Q

(set-fontset-font
 "fontset-startup" 'ascii  ;; or 'latin
 "-*-Courier New-*-*-*-*-17-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1")

Does not work.

But

(set-fontset-font
 "fontset-startup" 'chinese-gbk
 "-*-Arial Unicode MS-*-*-*-*-17-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1")

works fine for characters in charset chinese-gbk.


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
d:/Emacs/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
