The "sbit" part remains me of the earlier two-line patch which adds
back two function pointers which David Turner removed between 2.1.9 and
2.1.10. Then the call stack going funny - most probably
FT_Do_SBit_Metrics () in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libfreetype.so
is trying to call one of those two function pointers. The main question
is why David did it and/or what is the recommended change in Xorg.

#7  <signal handler called>
#8  0x00000000 in ?? ()
#9  0x401a9f66 in FT_Do_SBit_Metrics () from 
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libfreetype.so
