I have an emacs built from cvs (one week old, probably) for MacOS (NS).
I am trying to use the
  Options > Set Default Font
Followed by
  Options > Save Options
to change the default emacs font (size).

Unfortunately, when I restart emacs I get the original font size, and
not the one defined previously.

Does the following bit of code solve the problem for you?

(defun ns-respond-to-change-font ()
  "Respond to changeFont: event, expecting ns-input-font and\n\
ns-input-fontsize of new font."
  (interactive)
  (let ((face 'default))
    (set-face-attribute face t
			:family ns-input-font
			:height (* 10 ns-input-fontsize))
    (set-face-attribute face (selected-frame)
			:family ns-input-font
			:height (* 10 ns-input-fontsize))
    (let ((spec
	   (list (list t (face-attr-construct 'default)))))
      (put face 'customized-face spec)
      (custom-push-theme 'theme-face face 'user 'set spec)
      (put face 'face-modified nil))))

This would change the behavior of the font panel in other  
circumstances so that it wouldn't just set the font of the current  
frame.  Also it seems to work around the functionality in menu-set-font.

We might need to implement x-select-font to put up a font panel and  
return the result (without doing any actual setting of anything itself).
