[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

symptom:
(custom-face-attributes-get 'font-lock-keyword-face nil)
 ==> (:foreground "Cyan1")

(set-face-attribute 'font-lock-keyword-face nil
            :family "verdana")

(custom-face-attributes-get 'font-lock-keyword-face nil)
 ==> (:foreground "Cyan1" :family "verdana")

--------------------------------------------------------------

(set-face-attribute 'font-lock-keyword-face nil
            :family 'unspecified)

(custom-face-attributes-get 'font-lock-keyword-face nil)
 ==> (:foreground "Cyan1" :family "verdana")             ;; wasn't removed

--------------------------------------------------------------


my solution:
modify faces.el file
