What fonts do you have installed?
I reinstalled KDE2 from sources,and all Win98-based TrueType fonts 
disappearted. Well, not from disk, but from KDE2/XWindows

Go to
file:/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fs
open "config" file

you will see probably something like this:
-----------------------------
catalogue = /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk:unscaled
-----------------------------

Correct one:
-----------------------------
catalogue = /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc,
        /usr/share/fonts/ttf/western,
        /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk
-----------------------------
Of course, you will have fonts from Win98 in 
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont  
only if you run DrakFont before

Hope this helps.

As about bug report I suggest you send it to Bugs Submit 
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, so developers will take care about it.
IMHO. K menu should not crash even with wrong size of default font .
