[Bug 1407911] [NEW] Infinite loop when converting a Asana Math glyph to image

[fracting]

Public bug reported:

printf "\U1d763" | convert -font Asana-Math.ttf -background white -fill
black -pointsize 300 label:@- loop.png

The above command line causes an infinite loop for me, reproduced 100%.
It also creates a large temp file in /tmp until my system dead :(


BTW, imagemagick is a great tool, thanks for the great work!
