Let me phrase it like this: I don't see that font with the stock
Emacs, Kai doesn't see that font with the stock Emacs, probably most
people here don't see that font with the stock Emacs. So someone told
Emacs somewhere on your system to use that font.

It could take place in /etc/X11/app-default/Emacs. Or maybe your
GNU/Linux of Unix- distributor patched Emacs for your system? Or your
sysadmin is to blame? Who knows?

You could try to evaluate this:

(create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
 "-*-courier-medium-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-ilya,\
ecyrillic-iso8859-5:-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-5")

(set-face-font 'default "fontset-ilya")

Does that change anything? (Note: you _must_ have a ISO 8859-5
encoded font on your system for this to work. You can look if you
have one with the program xfontsel.)
