The bug report doesn't necessarily point to the need to support XFLD,
but rather that (frame-parameter <foo> 'font) should return something
that is considered as a font so it can be passed to x-list-fonts and
things like that.

I.e. we can address the issue by adapting x-list-fonts to accept
whichever format is output by (frame-parameter <foo> 'font).
