Please forgive me if my github etiquette is lacking. This is my first time filing an issue.
With version 0.76 there seems to be some problems if fonts are missing.
In Font.cc on lines 450 and 462, if the font specified in the style file is not found, NULL pointers are dereferenced causing segfaults. Wrapping those and returning 0 if the pointers are NULL leads to another segfault.

The Font.cc:398 might be off a little, as I had been editing that file to check for NULL pointers, but those /should/ all be after that line leaving this one unaffected.
I was going to debug it further and hopefully be able to submit a patch, but that may be a few days off; I haven't really dug into the blackbox source since 0.65. Right now it's easier for me to make sure the right fonts are present.
