Correct.  Something's setting outline->contours to an integer value  
vs. a pointer.  I spent plenty of time in gdb(1) but wasn't able to  
dig up where this was happening.  n_contours gets set to 1, and  
contours ends up having the value 12 (0xc) set to it.  :-/  When using  
a TTF font, the problem went away.  A PCF font, however, caused things  
to crash (unable to correctly obtain the glyph bounding box?  Just  
guessing at this point).  -sc
