Hi Charles,

I am not able to help you very specifically with this problem. As could
anybody else I looked up the code of [FTFontInfo
initWithFontName:matrix:screenFont:] and there is nothing in there,
which gives away what may go wrong. One would suspect that either it is
an internal error of the freetype library, a version mismatch or the art
backend is passing in the wrong values. There isn't to much parameter
checking going on here, so it may be the later. You should be able to
check in gdb the parameter passed into FTC_CMapCache_Lookup(), most
likely one of them will be NULL. If we know which one, we could add a
check in the art backend and perhaps even track down, where this invalid
value comes from.

Where did you get the fonts from that you are using here? It may be just
that they are invalid or not properly installed.

Hope this helps
Fred
