You are using pango compiled with freetype 2.0.9 with freetype 2.1
installed.  I am going to guess that you are also using xfree86 4.3.  If
this is the case, go to:

http://www.debianplanet.org/node.php?id=992

and read the sections on xfree86 4.3 and recompiling pango.  This should
fix several problems and apparently 'random' crashes.
