Comment 2 Mike A. Harris 2003-12-19 00:53:10 UTC
Please upgrade to the latest erratum release of XFree86-4.3.0-2.90.43
which contains many fixes to libXfont which fix various security
problems as well as problems which could result in SEGV.

Closing bug as fixed in ERRATA 4.3.0-2.90.43.  If the problem persists
after upgrading, and rebooting the system, please reopen.
