Hi,

sorry for the long time that it took me to come back to this item.

I eventually spent quite a significant amount of time analyzing what's going 
wrong here. At least, I have a few AIX LPARs, where we would always encounter 
this type of Exception:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ClassCastException: class 
sun.font.CompositeFont cannot be cast to class sun.font.PhysicalFont 
(sun.font.CompositeFont and sun.font.PhysicalFont are in module java.desktop of 
loader 'bootstrap')
        at 
java.desktop/sun.font.SunFontManager.getDefaultPhysicalFont(SunFontManager.java:1081)
        at 
java.desktop/sun.font.SunFontManager.initialiseDeferredFont(SunFontManager.java:960)
        at 
java.desktop/sun.font.SunFontManager.findOtherDeferredFont(SunFontManager.java:898)
        at 
java.desktop/sun.font.SunFontManager.findDeferredFont(SunFontManager.java:914)
        at 
java.desktop/sun.font.SunFontManager.findFont2D(SunFontManager.java:2105)
        ...

The problem on our systems is triggered by two factors. First is that the font 
configuration file contains paths to font files that don't exist. Secondly, the 
system's fontconfig has no TrueType Fonts installed. Now, during loading of 
fonts, it goes over these non-existing font files and tries to mark their 
initialization in sun.font.SunFontManager::initialiseDeferredFont(String 
fileNameKey) by adding the key into the initialisedFonts map. Since there is no 
font handle available because the font couldn't be loaded but the map's value 
must not be null, it wants to use the handle of the default physical font. So, 
calling getDefaultPhysicalFont at this place triggers findFont2D and then 
recursive calls into initialiseDeferredFont/getDefaultPhysicalFont/findFont2D 
until a matching default physical font was loaded. But it's quite 
indeterministic which font is returned at what place in findFont2D when the 
recursion is unwinded, so this ClassCastException occurs.

I propose to fix this by adding a "NULL FONT HANDLE" to use in initialisedFonts 
for fonts that canโ€™t be loaded. This will remove the recursion during loading 
of fonts. And afterwards a default physical font can then still be resolved, 
even if our font configuration contains less fonts (no true type fonts).

In my change I also add small improvements to the exception cases when trying 
to load non-existent true type fonts and to method getDefaultPhysicalFont.

The test exercises font loading and it would demonstrate the issue without the 
fix on several of our AIX systems.

Here is the webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~clanger/webrevs/8221741.0/

@Ichiroh-san: Can you test this fix in your environment and let me know if it 
fixes your issue?

I'll run a full platform test here at SAP, including JDK11.

If this can get reviewed, I intend to push this fix to JDK14.

Thanks & Best regards
Christoph
