  Xubuntu desktop crashes in call to cairo after setting fixed-width
  bitmap (pcf) GTK font

Bug description:
  Reproduce: In Xubuntu (xfce), go to Settings Manager -> Appearance ->
  Fonts -> Default Font, select an installed fixed-width, bitmapped .pcf
  font (e.g. ProFont).  Desktop crashes; the new font does appear in the
  apport dialogs, but attempting to log back into the session, xfdesktop
  crashes with an assert in cairo, with gtk up the stacktrace:

  cairo-scaled-font.c:459: _cairo_scaled_glyph_page_destroy: Assertion
  `!scaled_font->cache_frozen' failed.

  To undo the change and be able to log in, I had to remove the GTK Font
  property in xfce4's xsettings.xml config file.  It would be a fair
  limitation if certain bitmap fonts failed over gracefully or were
  disallowed for selection, however, allowing an the interface to select
  the font without error, and then crashing and hanging the session on
  every login, leaving the config in a bad state should be fixed.
