In the new code, when a font for ASCII is changed in a
fontset, the default font is changed to that new font in all
frames that are using the same fontset.

By the way, after the following change, (frame-parameter nil
'font) doesn't return a fontset of the current frame.

        * frame.c (x_set_font): Always store a font to the font parameter,
        never a fontset.  (Bug#1562)

Now the right way to get a fontset is:
   (face-attribute 'default :fontset)
