I found a bug. Emacs crashes, if you evaluated the following code with
my patch applied:

(progn
  (set-face-font 'default "fontset-default")
  (set-fontset-font "fontset-default"
                    'ascii
                    '("helvetica" . "iso8859-1")))

The critical fault seems to take place in `set_lface_from_font_name'
in xfaces.c (called from `Finternal_set_lisp_face_attribute'):

  if (fontset >= 0)
    font_name = SDATA (fontset_ascii (fontset));

But fontset_ascii doesn't return a Lisp-String in this case.

Where is the proper place to fix this?
