Hello, In both Emacs 25.1 and master (at 53f8f4b), calling find-font from an Emacs built with X support and started with `emacs -nw' results in a segfault. In both cases I am testing on Fedora 25. The version of 25.1 I tested on was Fedora's default version built with GTK, and master was built myself with Lucid. To reproduce: - Run `emacs -Q -nw' - Evaluate (find-font (font-spec :name "Anything-10")) (It doesn't matter whether "Anything-10" is something made up or an actual font on the system.) The result of "thread apply all bt full" is attached. Please let me know if I can provide any additional information.
