But it produces a font different from the default face's font, which
AFAIU was what you wanted? That's what happens for me: if I start
Emacs with "emacs -fn FOO" where FOO is a variable-pitch font, then
using the defface form I suggested makes fixed-pitch use a monospaced
font.

I only tried that in a running Emacs session, and with a face whose
name is different from fixed-pitch. I haven't tried bootstrapping
with the above in faces.el. I'm sure we can avoid the problem, if the
effect is what we want: for example, we could have the defface in
startup.el or something.
