Subject: bug#3039: Bug#3039: Cannot "Set Default Font..." on NS Emacs
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 16:12:00 -0400

[Here is the decoded original report:]

I cannot set the default font through the menu bar.  Choosing the "Set Default Font..." option causes the NS font panel to pop up, but the dreaded "(wrong-type-argument stringp nil)" exception to be thrown. Toggling debug-on-error yields the text below.  My Emacs is built from CVS at about 15:30, 17 April 2009.
