Gautami does not crash here.
Sure it seems it's crashing due to Gautami, but maybe it's because another 
font is involved.
Please try with the Character format dialog (Format - Character), with it it's 
easier to isolate the problem to the specific fonts.
Here, only SIL fonts crash:

Doulos SIL
Gentium Basic
Gentium Book Basic

Gentium basic is just after Gautami. Selecting Gautami in the listbox does not 
crash. It shows the font preview.
