*snort* emacs has always had weird problems with font sizing, and not just with xmonad (or even with tiling window managers or non- reparenting window managers).
Sure. The right way to do it ought to be to use M-x list-fonts then customize default. But (last time I tried, anyway) that only worked for the first frame. But setting resources should work, and seems to for everyone. The issue turns out to be the tool-bar: Emacs seems to create its window with the correct size, then the tool-bar gets added and (with xmonad) the bottom of the frame is lost. I doubt that's an xmonad issue, it's presumably that emacs is assuming it can resize rather than asking in the proper way.
