So what? Many users have them in various configuration files, and
they work for those users.
Do they work for them with XFT? They don’t for me:
$ xrdb -query| grep attribute
XEmacs.default.attributeBackground: White
XEmacs.bold-italic.attributeForeground: gold
XEmacs.bold.attributeForeground: IndianRed
XEmacs.italic.attributeForeground: red3
XEmacs.modeline.attributeFont: -*-verdana-medium-r-normal--11-*-75-75-p-*-iso8859-1
XEmacs.default.attributeFont: -*-andale mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1
XEmacs.default.attributeFace: -*-andale mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1
XEmacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-andale mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1
XEmacs.bold.attributeFont: -*-andale mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1
XEmacs.bold-italic.attributeFont: -*-andale
mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1
$
(face-font 'default)
=> #<font-specifier global=((x x-resource) . "-*-andale
mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1") fallback=(((tty) . "normal")
((x) . "Monospace-12") ((x) . "Sazanami Mincho-12")) 0x1f7e>
(face-font-instance 'default nil 'ascii)
=> #<font-instance
"Verdana-12:style=Regular:slant=0:weight=100:pixelsize=12.5:outline=True:scalable=True:dpi=75:rgba=1"
on #<x-device on ":0.0" 0x26701> xft font: 0x229ca00 0x2b068>
$ fc-list | grep '^And'
Andale Mono:style=Regular
$
That is, neither the size nor the font chosen appears to have anything to do
with the font specified in the X resource.
Deprecate them, yes, but I see no reason to simply break them.
