IM> I've seen XFree86 4.02 X server to crash when WINE have calculated
IM> font metrics for TTF fonts.

(This should be fixed in 4.0.3; it was a bug introduced in the 4.0.2
version of the TrueType backend.  More fixes for 4.1.0.)

Using a font server in this case would not have saved you; instead of
crashing the X server, the bug would've crashed the font server.  And
the X server is not particularly good at recovering when the font
server crashes (although that behaviour has been improved somewhat in
the 4.* series w.r.t. 3.3.* and the X.Org sources).
