Not sure if this is a once-off, but just reporting since its a bit strange.

Into a newly minted 50588 image I had recently loaded
Slice-Issue-17373...BenComan.12.mcz
which however only introduces new code with no modification to
existing code (except minor re-factoring of some tests)

I was happily editing a method in the Browser when the problem
occured.�� Its okay if I type within an existing word, but with space
either side of the cursor, typing cause a primitive failure per the
stack below.�� "....." notes some values.

This occurs even from a new Browser window, on any method.

In system settings, unticking and reticking [Use Free type...]
causes red-pane-of-death on the problematic code panes with similar
stack as below,
but the problem is fixed in newly opened Browser windows.�� (btw the
font had changed)

Array class(Object)>>primitiveFailed:
Array class(Object)>>primitiveFailed
Array class(Behavior)>>basicNew:
Array class>>new:
�� .....sizeRequested --> nil
FreeTypeFace(FT2Face)>>charmaps
�� .....numCharmaps --> nil
FreeTypeFont>>getLinearWidthOf:
�� .....self face charmaps --> a FreeTypeFace with numCharmaps --> nil

I see this issue quite often, not related to any special image version (happens since spur/ffi changes).

Happens randomly, most of the time it is enough to reopen the image (of course, you lost all changes).

In case its useful, I uploaded a fuel dump of the stack here...
