I filed this a while ago (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28803) 
for a user who reported it to me through XQuartz 
(http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/ticket/325) since I'm pretty clueless about 
a bunch of font magic.  Since I finally have time to work through my XQuartz 
queue, I thought I'd bring it up and hopefully make some progress...

Put ZapfDingbats.ttf (contact me for it due to licensing concerns) into 
~/.fonts, then:

cd ~/.fonts
mkfontscale
mkfontdir
xset fp+ ${HOME}/.fonts
xlsfonts | grep dingbats

You should see:
-misc-zapf dingbats-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1

Now try running:
xfd -fn "-misc-zapf dingbats-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1"

You'll get:
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  45 (X_OpenFont)
  Value in failed request:  0x80000b
  Serial number of failed request:  21
  Current serial number in output stream:  22

What is going wrong here?  Any thoughts?
