    Possibly, when it bombs, my usual response is to file a bug report, but
    where it's font related, I'm slightly wary, as my packages include a
    kludge patch to get around the fact that SuSE 8.2's fontconfig is not
    upgradable in a sane way (use --force? Eew, no thanks!) and is quite an
    old version.

    So, if you can live with it like that till 9.0 when I can remove that
    patch, and we have a decent, up-to-date, upgradable fontconfig, and then
    see if it still happens, that would be great... :)
