Bug Description

System: Windows 7 Enterprise, 64 bit, SP 1

Inkscape nightly, r 12119 (happened in 12111 as well, not in 12104)

Happens since the new font list in the "Text" tool [F8],

To reproduce:
- open a document which contains text in a font not available on the sytem
  (in this case sans, sans-serif)
- select the text tool, activate the drop-down list
- use the extension "replace fonts" to replace all fonts by a font existing on the system (here: Arial)
- when switching back to the font dropw-down list, the crash occurs

Error Message: (see attachment)

Title: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Program ...\inkscape.exe
File: cairo.c
Line: 177

Expression: _cairo_status_is_error (Status)

I have 3 options: [Cancel], [Retry], [Ignore], but whatever I choose, the program will abort.

Hmm ..I've read the comment from uwesch on Bug #1122374 above.

To me it looks like pretty much the same bug

..however, I also can't reproduce it reliably.
Sometimes it crashes, sometimes it doesn't.
Sometimes only when we use "Select same" -> "Object type" (which is text) and then select the drop-down list

This file is strange to begin with (we often get SVG files exported from different CAD applications,
in different quality, hence the often missing fonts)
but I can't send the file as it's company confidential.

So I don't mind if you close the bug.

Should I make out a more consistent pattern for the error, I'll post a new bug with more info.
