When starting emacs on terminal with `face-font-rescale-alist' config,
current emacs output the error like the following. (BTW, without "-nw"
works fine.)

$ cat > .emacs.el
(setq debug-on-error t)
(add-to-list 'face-font-rescale-alist '(".*-AR PL.*-.*" . 1.2))
^D
$ emacs -nw

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument font unspecified)
  font-xlfd-name(unspecified)
  #f(compiled-function () #<bytecode 0x1f0e974a4b1f82e7>)()
  normal-top-level()

Thanks.

This was a month ago, so I'm assuming the fix worked, and I'm closing
this bug report.
