font-log [was Re: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1 succeeds]

[Robert J. Chassell]

    I find it perfectly reasonable.  "nil" does not mean "don't log the
    fonts" but rather "the font-log contains nothing yet".  As you say: just
    like buffer-undo-list.

As a user, I pay attention to the command, `font-show-log', and
figure that the variable follows it.  

The variable `buffer-undo-list' is wrong, too; nil should turn the
feature off not on.  I understand the list contains nothing until you
enable it; but that is irrelevant.  Fortunately, neither variable is
evaluated often and their default global values can get away with
being t.
