It doesn't matter. It also crashes if you install it from scratch in Linux.
It's an old bug in the the winex11 code (I think). The code fails in the
function X11DRV_SelectFont in xfont.c. I suspect it's because it tries to
access a font it hasn't loaded, but I'm not sure of it. It definitely has
something to do with the font code because it doesn't segfault if you comment
out this code.

It might be related to CreateScalableFont because the scalable fonts aren't
created.
