I'm currently debugging evolution to get rid of this bug. 
Currently it seems problem lies when returning from the get_font_options function.
Normally the caller should have a valid (const cairo_font_options_t *) value and into the get_font_options, the value is correct. But just after returning the value is mangled.

Looking into the machine code, I see something nasty:
<build_layout+186>:  xor    %eax,%eax
<build_layout+188>:  callq  0x2b7e7d2b1340 <get_font_options@plt>
<build_layout+193>:  movslq %eax,%r12
<build_layout+196>:  mov    %rbx,%rdi
<build_layout+199>:  mov    %r12,%rsi
<build_layout+202>:  callq  0x2b7e7d2b2540 <pango_cairo_context_set_font_options@plt>

The return value is stored into %rax (64bit register) but it is %eax (32bit register) which is stored into %r12 so there's a big risk that the return value is mangled

I suppose this bug only concern AMD64 platform (or perhaps 64bits platforms) but architecture is not reported by bug buddy

I think I just found the cause

Extract from build log:

e-cell-text.c: In function 'build_layout':
e-cell-text.c:588: warning: implicit declaration of function 'get_font_options'
e-cell-text.c:588: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
e-cell-text.c:601: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type

          2006-08-18 20:29:36 UTC
        



The get_font_options function definition is missing. Adding it solved the machine code problem and crashes disappeared

Thanks for committing the patch but so far I don't see in CVS any modification to e-util.h (although ChangeLog was modified). 
I want to be sure it is fixed for Gnome 2.16 RC1 ;-)

looks like srini committed the changelog entry, but not the patch itself. :-)
