Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040216

When visiting this page or the cut-down example I'm about to attach, Mozilla
crashes.

The problem appears to be with the Unicode character 478 - Latin Capital Letter
A With Diaeresis And Macron but I didn't bother to check if any other characters
could also be responsible.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load the page
2.Scroll down to the section: Other selected Unicode characters from the
"Minimum European Subset"


Actual Results:  
Mozilla crashed


Expected Results:  
Not crashed


I'll attach stack trace, test case and build config.

I got the crash for the following fonts:
Arial, Arial Black, Bitstream Charter, Century Schoolbook, Comic Sans MS,
Courier, Courier 10 Pitch, Courier New, Georgia, Impact, Luxi Mono, Luxi Sans,
Luxi Serif, Nimbus Mono L, Nimbus Roman No 9 L

I didn't get the crash for LucidaTypewriter

I got bored so I didn't check all the fonts.
