When trying to run Inkscape on an OS X system using the X server from X11R7.2, we're seeing the following issue: * SUMMARY Clicking the font dropdown in Inkscape causes X11 to become generally unresponsive; not only does Inkscape freeze up, but other X11 programs seem to stop responding to clicks as well. * STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Get inkscape (open source) from www.inkscape.org and run it. You'll have to have X11 running before you double-click its icon, since its launcher hasn't been up Leopardized yet. 2. Activate font dropdown by following instructions in screenshot. * RESULTS Inkscape hangs, all of X11 seems to be ignoring clicks. Backtrace of Inkscape when it locks up: 6435 pango_cairo_error_underline_path 6435 cairo_scaled_font_create 6435 _cairo_scaled_font_is_ft 6435 _cairo_ft_unscaled_font_unlock_face 6435 _cairo_ft_unscaled_font_unlock_face 6435 0x13c82fa 6435 abort I know this may or may not actually be a cairo problem, but any hints how I might narrow it down?

At some point over the past 9 years, this seems to have been fixed.
