	Indeed, the same version works fine on my ThinkPad running Debian 
GNU/Linux.

	Could you be more specific about what you mean by "how" it is 
segfaulting?  It is pretty obvious that it is reading/writing an invalid 
memory location.  As I said the problem occurs in font_unparse_fcname. 
In particular, line 1258 of font.c with parameters font=42759700, 
pixel_size=19, name=0x2a20d20 "", and nbytes=96.
