No, this is incorrect.  The message said it wanted a text image
type and that is indeed what it wanted.  Your mesage rambled a
bit and I got lost.  But if you want to understand why this is so
and where the string instantiators are coming from, try

(make-image-specifier "F:\\src\\xemacs-20.3-b2/etc/xemacs-icon2.xbm")

and then see autodetect_instantiate().  I think there are two
different failuires occurring here.

The patch to the set-console-type-image-conversion-list call
looks OK.

This hybrid filename
   F:\src\xemacs-20.3-b2/etc/xemacs-icon2.xbm.
ought to be fixed.  This means patching expand-file-name to use
DOS separators when running in DOS-land.
