This is why I spent 1/4 of a night building 21.2-b2, 21.1.3, 21.1.4
again to track down the problem.
The result is that
'(default ((t (:background "white" :bold nil :italic nil))) t)
exposes the same problem under 21.1.[2-4]
as
'(default ((t (:family "Courier New" :bold nil :italic nil))) t)
did under 21.2-b1[67] until your frob-face-property patch came along.
HTH,
