Bravo! Thanks, Jason. I am a happy camper once again. To be clear, my question was about Emacs 20 (only). It is only Emacs 20 for which I see this `x-list-fonts' problem. For Emacs 20, the new font format does not work - but your other suggestion does work. It does indeed fix the problem if I change the 112, 96, and 96 each to *. And that fix is not a problem for other Emacs releases, so I'll stick with it. Thanks again.
