Font problem with Express-windows, ACL, DS3100

I have a problem with launching Express-windows on a DECstation 3100 Running
Franz ACL 3.1, and UWS 2.2. 

In short, a (xlib:font-ascent some-font-object) causes a name-error, while
other slots like xlib:font-name are accessed without problem. When I open
another display in the same environment and open new fonts, the bug
disappears. I am afraid this is a situation where the Allegro and
Express-windows will throw the ball at each other. Anyway, any kind of
indication on what to investigate next would be useful.

Here is a transcript of the session, the interesting stuff is at the end.
