As far as I can determine (git bisecting the Emacs sources is a real
PITA), the crash started happening after this change:

2008-04-09  Jason Rumney  <address@hidden>

        * w32term.c (w32_compute_glyph_string_overhangs): Compute overhangs
        for new font backend and composite cases.

Reverting that change still fails, though. (There's been many commits
to font code after this change, and some of them surely depend on it.)
