Oh great.  `font-size' can return a string _and_ a number?  The
function unfortunately is not documented.  But looking at
`x-font-create-object' it seems that it may return a number if the
font name includes the size in points and a string if this is not the
case but the size in pixels is given.  And to make it even more
interesting it can return nil if no size is specified.

I checked a fix into CVS.  Thanks for the report.
