another gdb backtrace and got this
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffe59692b5d in FontFileListNextFontWithInfo ()
from /usr/lib/libXfont.so.1
(gdb) backtrace full
#0 0x00007ffe59692b5d in FontFileListNextFontWithInfo ()

c=0x7ffe5b957210) at ../../dix/dixfonts.c:901
fpe = 0x7ffe5b956fd0..............etc,etc
