Thanks for taking the time to file this bug report. It looks like a crash in Fontconfig, could you file a bug at bugs.freedesktop.org too, with a reference to this one?
comment #1 from Keith Packard on 2006-10-27 10:35 The mozilla print system is mis-using the fontconfig API. Fontconfig 2.3 would ignore this error, but fontconfig 2.4 does not. This should already have been filed against mozilla.
Possibly a dup of bug 356632 [-> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294879] but that bug doesn't mention FcCompare and I couldn't find any bugs about FcCompare on b.m.o ...

I'm seeing the same consistent crash on print with epiphany 2.14.3 in Debian unstable. The backtrace from the coredump is the same as the one reported by the gentoo user above. The Debian bug in question (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=262038) has just been closed with a link to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=390140 which contains both a workaround & new versions of the libxul sources which fix the problem. cheers, Phil
The Debian changelog for the new libxul0d package specifically mentions the patch from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294879 btw.
Marking this bug NOTGNOME.
