1. Have a line in init.el like

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 110 :weight 'semi-light :family
"Cascadia Mono")

2. Start Emacs. See the graphical frame get resized briefly during 
startup, but then go back to the default monospaced system font (Ubuntu 
Mono in my case), with the default font size.

To reproduce without wiping ~/.emacs.d, create

/tmp/.emacs.d/init.el with that one line

and run

emacs -Q -l /tmp/.emacs.d/init.el

with a recent enough build from master.

If I then evaluate that line in the running Emacs session (visit the 
file, go to eol, press C-x C-e), the face attributes get set correctly, 
with expected visual result.

There was a similar report in emacs-devel from Tim Cross 2 days ago, but
it apparently resolved itself after 'fc-cache -v' and rebooting. I
haven't tried rebooting, but the command itself didn't help.

Yes, I guess so.
