I see.  As it's an alias, this correct font name:
        -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-67-iso8859-15
should be included in the list returned by
xfont_list_pattern even if we ignore that alias.  So, I've
just installed a fix to ginore such an errornous name.

Could you please try again with the latest code?

By the way, it seems that the alias name should be actually:
  -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-x-12-120-x-x-p-67-iso8859-1
                                     ^^^^^^^^^^
