When I run flextable, it generates a segfault.  I traced the problem to 
systemfonts::system_fonts()

> > require("systemfonts")
> Loading required package: systemfonts
> >  system_fonts()

I updated my OS and R, deleted and reinstalled the systemfonts package -- 
problem persists.  

I also opened Apple's font application and "validated" all font files (I have 
never installed any special fonts nor is there anything non-standard (e.g., 
Homebrew) on my system.

Of note, I can run other functions in systemfonts without problems -- only 
system_fonts triggers the segfault.

Another similar setup on OS X does not trigger the same problem, so the problem 
is more likely something in my system rather than a problem in R.

Does anyone have any ideas on how one might address this?
