Looks like a freetype bug: the following code segfaults when linked
against libfreetype.6.3.10 but not when linked against
libfreetype.6.3.16. Freetype has some code to read dfont files, which
apparently had a bug in the older version, and this is triggered by the
new code that reads in all font files.
#include <ft2build.h>
#include FT_FREETYPE_H
int main()
{
FT_Library library;
FT_Face face;
int error;
error = FT_Init_FreeType(&library);
if (error) {
printf("FT_Init_FreeType error %d\n", error);
return;
}
error = FT_New_Face(library, "/Library/Fonts/CharcoalCY.dfont", 0, &face);
if (error) {
printf("FT_New_Face error %d\n", error);
return;
}
return;
}
