Lucid toolkit and antialiased fonts

[Ulrich Mueller]

Hi,

with Emacs from BZR trunk (configured with --with-x-toolkit=athena
--with-xft), I can specify fonts by their fontconfig name:

    Emacs.font: Droid Sans-10
    Emacs.pane.menubar.font: Droid Sans-10

This will give me antialiased fonts both for text and in the menubar.

However, if I specify the font by its XLFD name instead:

    Emacs.font: -*-droid sans-medium-r-normal--*-100-*-*-p-*-iso10646-1
    Emacs.pane.menubar.font: -*-droid 
sans-medium-r-normal--*-100-*-*-p-*-iso10646-1

then the text font is antialiased but the font in the menubar is not.

Why?
