In xboard 4.2.7, if a needed font is not installed on your system, xboard should exit with the error message "no fonts match pattern". In the CVS version you may get "Unable to create font set" instead. I can't find a way to generate the error message you got. It may mean that your system is misconfigured such that XListFonts() lists some fonts that you don't actually have.
