Description Mats Palmgren 2013-11-20 17:00:47 UTC

Mozilla has a fix for this bug that we would like to upstream
so that we can remove some other code for dealing with
crashes caused by huge font sizes.

http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/gfx/cairo/use-show-text-glyphs-if-glyph-path-fails.patch

It was added in bug 715798:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=715798#c21


BTW, we have a lot of other fixes that you might be interested in:

there's a short description of each in the README file:

So we fail to create the path, but return SUCCESS? I think you are papering over the bug.

Comment 2 Mats Palmgren 2013-11-20 17:42:22 UTC

I guess so.  You should ask Jonathan Kew on that bug, he might
have steps to reproduce the issue.
