Emacs 27 crashes with the following init.el file:

(setq default-frame-alist
    '((ns-appearance . darkgray)
	  (tool-bar-lines . 0)
	  (width . 100)
	  (top . 1)
	  (fullscreen . fullheight)
	  (modeline . t)
	  (mouse-color . "black")
	  (background-mode . light)
	  (menu-bar-lines . 1)
	  (cursor-color . "darkblue")
	  (background-color . "White")
	  (foreground-color . "Black")
	  (font . "-apple-Monaco-medium-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1")
	  (fontsize . 12)
	  (font-backend ns)
	  (left-fringe)
	  (right-fringe)))

I have been using this construction for years, but recently it caused
emacs to crash. I recently switched over to Emacs 27.1.1 after having
used an older Emacs 27 version for months.

The offending line is '(font-backend ns)', without this line there is no
crash.
Also if I start Emacs with -Q and eval this expression directly or load
.init.el there is no problem, only when it is used in the init file.

I read somewhere that font-backend 'ns' is deprecated, but Emacs
shouldn't crash. If this font-backend is wrong it should give en error
message.



As this is the distributed Emacs from
https://emacsformacosx.com/emacs-builds/Emacs-27.1-1-universal.dmg there
is no symbol table information
