Oddly _that_ works for me too, as does the "-fn" option.  It's
`customize-face' and `set-face-attribute' that don't seem to work.

The set-face-attribute form I tried to use was:

   (set-face-attribute 'default nil :family "Aurulent Sans Mono")

Since the -fn option apparently works correctly, I tried your gdb recipe
with the above set-face-attribute form, setting the breakpoint just
before I evaluated that form in the *scratch* buffer.

I've attached the gdb session.

Thanks,
