$ xrdb -query
*customization: -color
Xcursor.size:   32
Xcursor.theme:  DMZ-White
Xcursor.theme_core:     true

$ xrdb -remove
$ xrdb -query
$ ./src/emacs -Q --eval '(custom-set-faces (quote (default ((t (:height 
121 :family "something-invalid"))))))' # then hovered mouse over 
something that produces a tooltip
Fatal error (11)Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I'll try this out on a fresh Ubuntu machine in case it's something 
specific to my machine.

Thanks for taking the time to try to reproduce it!
