Thanks.  I applied to the emacs-24 branch the first 2 patches, the
part of the 3rd patch that does not introduce backward
incompatibilities, and the 4th patch you sent in a later message.
Please confirm that the result will DTRT.  Meanwhile, I'm marking
those bugs as "done".

In the future, please also provide ChangeLog entries for the changes
that could be dropped into the respective ChangeLog files.  TIA.

The incompatible part of the 3rd patch, reproduced below, remains
uncommitted.  I understand the motivation for it, but the emacs-24
branch shouldn't introduce incompatible changes at this time.  If
Stefan agrees with applying this part to the trunk, I will do that.

============================================================
Backwards incompatible change: make-face previously accepted
no-init-from-resources as an optional parameter which has now
been removed. There were no other users within Emacs itself. And this
parameter shouldn't have been there in the first place, imho.
