Since sometime after the font-backend merge, the same errors are 
occuring on Windows when backwards compatible xlfd strings are used to 
specify fonts. They did not occur before the font-backend merge in 
either trunk or font-backend branch.

frame-notice-user-settings: Font `-outline-DejaVu Sans 
Mono-normal-r-normal-normal-*-100-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1' is not defined

C-u C-x = on a character after setting the font to "DejaVu Sans Mono-10" 
shows the font name as:

-outline-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-mono-13-*-*-*-m-*-iso10646-1

In particular "normal" in the slant field seems wrong.
