Delay or crash when entering certain characters

Here's a short example that can be used to reproduce the issue:

import nimx.window
import nimx.text_field
import nimx.system_logger
proc startApp() = newWindow(newRect(40, 40, 800, 600)).addSubview(newTextField(newRect(20, 40, 20, 20)))
runApplication: startApp()

The crash occurs when the first character entered into the field is '€' for example, but it only results in a delay when it is not the first character. Characters like 'å', 'ä', and 'ö' do not cause a crash, but they also result in a delay of about 2 seconds.

Here is the stack trace for when it crashes:
