[Bug 940033] [NEW] FontForge crashes on Lucid using Element->Styles->Change Weight

[SandraLAVixen]

Public bug reported:

This occurs intermittently, does not occur every single time even on the
same font/glyph and is hard to reproduce each time.

It crashes about 5-10 seconds after changing the weight of a glyph,
usually with a negative EM and custom height hints.

After 10 seconds has passed, there is usually no crash, unless you try
an change the weight of another glyph.
