I hoped you would do some experiments with the fontset definition -- I did some time ago when I tried to re-write and enhance my own fontset definitions and so I found that Cyrillic and Central European glyphs could scale from some points (almost invisible 5) up to 50. The other Latin glyphs only scaled in discrete steps, hence I think of those bloody bitmaps! One cure could be to clean up Monaco.dfont from the bitmapped fonts ...
There can be other reasons too. Pfaedit tells me: Warning: Glyph 284 is named Gcedilla which should mean it is mapped to Unicode U+0122, but Glyph 360 already has that encoding. Bad lookup table format=8, first=32 cnt=778 total glyphs in font=810 Could be this makes the use of the scalable TT glyphs impossible ... Here's one of my stripped-down lines:cyrillic-iso8859-5:-*-monaco cy-medium-r-normal--63-*-*-*-m-*-mac-*,
Bitstream Courier, i.e. -*-courier-medium-r-normal--*-*-*-*-m-*-mac-roman, is easy scalable.
