Thanks. Weird it not being linked directly in the post. “ New variable 'xft-ignore-color-fonts'. Default t means don't try to load color fonts when using Xft, as they often cause crashes. Set it to nil if you really need those fonts.” I see they finally caved in (although in a quite pedantly trying not to way) and allowed use of color-fonts. Whee!

Was the problem not that no free OS supported color fonts properly? Emacs does not belong to the Monochrome Font Foundation, after all. Disabling a feature because it causes crashes is not ideological.
