Public bug reported:
The current fribidi release (fribidi-0.19.6) is not thread-safe unless
configured with `--enable-malloc`. This can cause crashes when using fribidi in
multiple libraries concurrently.
This option is removed, and thread-safe allocation enabled by default, in this
commit:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/fribidi/fribidi/commit/?id=54b4496e9c2368c53f1cff57347c1f395328a142
The maintainer has not yet produced a release containing this change, so for
now, package maintainers should either switch to a git version or pass the
`--enable-malloc` switch at configure-time.
