So apparently there is a problem in the freetype library that's causing this crash. It's been fixed by bug 200033. You should be able to download the problem by downloading the new RPM for freetype mentioned in this advisory: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2006-0613.html.
Yup, that fixes it. I suppose this is a dup then but I'm not able to see that bug. And apparently I'm not allowed to close this even though I'm the reporter.
