The crash does not happen if I run in a single frame.  So, my
environment has these features:

 - I have two frames open.

 - These two frames use different fonts.  One uses the default startup
   font, the other has been configured using the Lisp code below.

 - The crash seems to occur at unpredictable times while repainting
   the frame using the default font.

I am setting the font in my other frame using:

(defun big-font ()
  (interactive)
  (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
   "-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--18-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-courier18,
ascii:-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--18-180-75-75-m-180-mac-roman,
latin-iso8859-1:-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--18-180-75-75-m-180-mac-roman")

  (set-frame-font "fontset-courier18")
  (setq-default line-spacing 1))

Does this ring any bells yet?

John
