Nevermind. 6 is abort, I thought it was FPE. Check your
var/log/X*log and see if you see something about beziers the next time
it crashes.
One hacky workaround is to not load the Type1 module (just comment it
out in your /etc/X11/XF86Config)
# This loads the Type1 and FreeType font modules
# Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
A longer term fix would be to fix the kernel..
