Description Parag Nemade 2017-03-06 16:03:47 UTC 
Description of problem:
1) Use a simple fontfore script where it will open the sfd file e.g. say generate.ff
fontforge.open()
2) get any sfd file e.g. FreeSans.sfd from gnu-free-fonts upstream tarball

3) run following command
/usr/bin/fontfore -lang=py -script generate.ff FreeSans.sfd

This will cause core dump.

Finally I managed to report this bug from a F26 VM where I faced some dual mouse pointer issue :)
