I can no longer reproduce the crash anymore now that I've deleted the
PlkrVFSFontCache, but here's what I remember about the behavior:

All my custom fonts were AA fonts and all installed on VFS.  Both Library
and Document fonts were the same file: a Tahoma 12pt font I created and if
it was only on VFS it would crash.

I tried selecting a different VFS font for the Library, but keeping the
same document font, and it would crash.  If I moved the Tahoma font back
into memory, Plucker would run and the library would display in the
alternate font fine.  (Note:  I have separate font prefs for each doc,
since I have a couple documents with tables that take too long to render
with AA fonts; all but about 5 docs were in the same font as the library
font.)

It crashed if I didn't have the particular Tahoma font installed in
Memory.  Moving other fonts into memory didn't make any difference.
