It's a misleading warning (xterm was marking it internally as a problem, but when I reorganized things the "internal" status was lost - will fix in the next update). You can stifle the warning by setting the fontWarnings resource to 0, as shown in the manual: https://invisible-island.net/xterm/manpage/xterm.html#VT100-Widget-Resources:fontWarnings -- Thomas E.
