Hi Akira,

There was a (mis)configuration on my system causing this problem.
Sometime back I had added Sun's distribution of Lucida TrueType fonts
to my defoma font list manually with `dfontmgr`. I manually removed the
entries recently, and the Microsoft TrueType fonts no longer caused
gtk1 apps to exit unexpectedly.
