Then it's a server-specific issue. X doesn't give apps a way to
specify a font other than the XLFD, and in the fully qualified case as
here, there's no room for more specifity.
Apparently X does not define any particular behavior for XListFonts or
XLoadFont, and XListFonts and XLoadFont do not seem to be related in
the sense that the font that will be loaded by XLoadFont can be
deduced from the output of XListFonts.
You could try playing with the FontPath to give priority to unscaled
fonts from 75dpi and 100dpi. As a last resort, you can munge the
fonts.dir files to distinguish between the font files that are loaded.

OK. I didn't have time to build a no-mule last night, but I'm using
XDarwin so it's likely to not work the same for me anyway.
