I'm not able to reproduce anything amiss on my Linux box. I would try Jouni's suggestion, and if that doesn't work, please try going back to revision 3762, which is before I made a number of changes to the memory management of font buffers. If that works, but HEAD doesn't a traceback from gdb would be useful.
