I was missing these two, even though I had defined all the others you
mentioned here, in particular

So adding these two missing simple "*Font" resources to my
".Xresources"
file solved my problem. Thanks a lot :-)
However, I'm still not aware of what precisely the semantic difference
between these two forms is. Why do I still need "*menubar*Font" when
"*menubar*FontSet" is already defined? Can anybody explain?
The internationalisation support for the X11 toolkits was added on after
their initial development, and involves the FontSet resources in addition to
the Font resources. We do it this way because the X toolkits do it this way.
