Comment:

 libcairo appears to be crashing when trying to determine information about
 a font.

 Are you using an unusual/non-default font?

 Which fonts are in use by your theme?

 If you replace `C:\Program Files\Common Files\GTK\2.0\bin\libcairo-2.dll`
 with the one in the `bin` directory in
 [http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/cairo_1.8.6-1_win32.zip
 this zip file] does it work any better?
