Start emacs by specifying a bitmap font with non-existing
size.  For instance, if you have these fonts,

% xlsfonts -fn -etl-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-iso8859-1
-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--0-0-72-72-c-0-iso8859-1
-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-140-72-72-c-70-iso8859-1
-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-80-iso8859-1
-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-180-72-72-c-90-iso8859-1
-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-120-iso8859-1

start Emacs as this:
% emacs -fn -etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--17-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1

X server can open a font auto-scaled from one of the
existing bitmap fonts.  But, such a font is rejected while
choosing a font for the default face, which leads to
mismatch of the frame font and the default face font.

The fix is to the adjust frame's font to what chosen for the
default face font in such a case.
