emacs uses fontconfig and xft nowadays. I don't know if stumpwm
uses xft, but "grep -iR xft *" and "grep -iR fontc *" in the
stumpwm sources didn't get a result, so I assume it doesn't.

As "grep -iR xft *" in the sources for the debian package
of cl-clx-sbcl didn't turn up anything, I doubt that clx
provides support for xft. And stumpwm uses clx to communicate
with the X server, so no xft in stumpwm too, I assume.

Sorry to disappoint you,

Eric
