Thanks, that looks good.

I didn't see any crashes, only assertion violations.
FWIW Debian's emacs23 and emacs24 binaries don't crash here, so
I suspect that the bug is luckily "solved" by accident somewhere.

I'm still wondering about those names that include -, such as
"semi-condensed" that we have in font.c:
- IIUC, they can never be useful for XFLD font names.  Are they useful
  for other font name formats supported by Emacs?  Examples?
- If they are useful sometimes, is it important to have the dashed
  name first in the list?
