Font-lock-faces in Emacs 23.2

[gerald . jean]

Hello,

I am using Emacs-23.2 on a RedHat 64-bit box.  Ever since IT upgraded from
21.3 to 23.2 I have problems with just one face, namely "Font Lock Type
Face".  Every time I restart Emacs I have to do the following:

1.- M-x customize-group «enter»
2.- font-lock-faces «enter»
3.- Then move down to the "Font Lock Type Face", it is always set to
Goldenrod (which is unreadable on the                 background color I am
using for years).
4.- Then change the Foreground entry from Goldenrod to OrangeRed (for
example).
5.- Then move back to top of buffer, click the «Set for current session»
button and the «Save for future sess      ions button», reply «yes» to the
asked question about saving the current settings.
6.- Exit customize

The settings have been applied and are OK, and stay that way for the time
the current session remains open .
Next time I restart Emacs I am at square 1 again.

Customize has written the following code to my «.emac» file, and this is
the last statement in my «.emacs» file:

(custom-set-faces
  ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 '(default ((t (:inherit nil :stipple nil :background "LightBlue"
:foreground "Maroon" :inverse-video nil :box nil :strike-through nil
:overline nil :underline nil :slant normal :weight bold :height 137 :width
normal :foundry "b&h" :family "lucidatypewriter"))))
 '(dired-header ((t (:inherit default :foreground "OrangeRed"))))
 '(font-lock-type-face ((t (:foreground "OrangeRed"))))
 '(outline-5 ((t (:inherit font-lock-type-face :foreground "OrangeRed")))))

I did post about this problem a little while ago but didn't get any usefull
replies?

Thanks for any support,
