Thanks, I think the situation is clear.

This crashes here:

  ft_face = cairo_ft_scaled_font_lock_face (scaled_font);
  if (XFIXNUM (AREF (entity, FONT_SIZE_INDEX)) == 0)
    {
      int upEM = ft_face->units_per_EM;  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

because cairo_ft_scaled_font_lock_face returned NULL:

>         ft_face = 0x0

That function is documented to be able to return NULL:

  Returns

  The FT_Face object for font, scaled appropriately, or NULL if
  scaled_font is in an error state (see cairo_scaled_font_status()) or
  there is insufficient memory.

So it sounds like we should see if scaled_font is "in an error state",
and in any case bail out if ft_face is NULL.

Can someone please propose a patch along these lines?  I cannot easily
test a Cairo build, so I won't try showing a patch.

Thanks.
