Something has changed, other than the packages in April, there was a late March update of fontsproto:
[2012-03-25 02:04] upgraded fontsproto (2.1.1-2 -> 2.1.2-1)
I don't know what this package does, but most all of the crashes are related to rendering (fonts I guess). If this package made a basic change in font rendering (size/shape/spacing/etc..) could this cause the crashes we are seeing?

Very possibly YES. Can you see what the difference is between the two package versions?

Tim,
I've diffed every file in the fontsproto package and it looks like the code didn't change. There were a ton of doc changes and <copyright>, etc.. changes, but nothing that would explain the crash as being part of that upgrade (at least to me). Here is the complete list if changes in fontsproto (2.1.1-2 -> 2.1.2-1):

I've put all the diffs here if you want to put another quick set of eyes on anything that looks curious:
