What does this mean? Xft can be initialized from X Resource?

Unfortunately it does.

Personally I specify distinct fonts for XFT and for server-side X11 fonts
in my ~/.Xdefaults like so: 

#ifdef XEMACS_XFT
XEmacs.default.attributeFont: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-15
#else
XEmacs.default.attributeFont: "-*-andale mono-medium-r-*-*-*-85-100-100-*-*-iso8859-1"
#endif

and then before starting an XEmacs with XFT, I run 

xrdb -DXEMACS_XFT < ~/.Xdefaults

which puts the earlier resource in place, instead of the later one.
