The blog article I posted earlier mentioned the first of the above two
lines, but the poster in question said he "did all that". I'm not sure
the second line is required. Maybe the --enable-font-backend flag to
./configure takes care of it?
Also, I believe you can test things w/o editing ~/.Xresources via the
following (also in the article):
emacs -r -fn "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-10"
If you don't like reverse video, don't include the -r param.

You can also use the following to avoid restarting X:
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
