Just printed that sentence out, framed it and hung it over my bed. It's
that rare to me, unfortunately ... ;)

Can confirm this I guess. I also used a custom font definition before:
--font="DEFAULT:8:sans,monospace"

Omitting that prevents the segfault. I thought the definition should be
OK in pango terms and return something. So there's still the question
why a null pointer pops up for the font ...

Anyway, thanks for the feedback.
