If there are no errors, x_set_font inevitably calls x_new_font which on
window inevitably calls x_set_window_size which inevitably calls
my_set_window_pos.  Or do you see some way out for this?  So my only
explanation is that something in Drew's setup signals an error which
causes this to return earlier.

BTW I could hardly analyze this at the moment because now I'm bitten by
the "modeline doesn't update correctly" virus.  `find-tag-noselect',
when trying to go to the definition of x_new_font, switches from
nsterm.m to w32term.c to xterm.c as expected but after going to nsterm.m
the modeline buffer id is stuck at nsterm.m.
