I have the same problem with emacs 21 on FreeNX.  I think it's
something to do with how the X font server works inside NX (at least,
the free version -- NoMachine's 2.1 server seems to solve the
problem).

A work-around is to specify an ISO8559-1 font on the command line:

emacs -fn 9x15

Of course, this is no good if you need non-western characters.  Also
not sure how MULE works in emacs 22, if you're using that, but at
least you can read it. YMMV
