Yes, that could explain a lot.

I had a closer look at problem. It only happens when fontconfig-assisted 
glyph-fallback is active, so the crashreports I mentioned above, which are 
mostly from WIN, can not be explained by it. There is 
also another way to solve the problem with the early release: By resetting the 
font selector request to 
base level before requesting yet another fallback font. I'll attach a 
mini-patch below.

The alternate approach has the potential benefit that fontconfig could suggest 
a better stylistic match 
to the base-level font which has missing glyphs. There would be a potential 
performance penalty 
though: We cache the expensive (e.g. #i97544#) fontconfig replies in a 
FontEntry. Currently in the 
fallback's FontEntry, with the alternate approach in the base-level entry. 
Since a glyph fallback font has 
a much high probability to be in the fallback chain again the cache hit rate 
would go down quite a bit.
