Dear all,

I posted about this problem a few months ago and have been scouring
the web ever since but I cannot find the slightest hint at a solution.
 Actually, it seems that nobody else has reported a similar problem,
which I find really weird since the function is such a basic one in
pyglet -- quoting Zoolander, "I feel like I am taking crazy pills!"

The problem is that I cannot use the pyglet.font.load() function at
all without causing a segmentation fault:

python
>>> import pyglet
>>> arial = pyglet.font.load('Arial')
Segmentation fault

My system is running FreeBSD 8.1/amd64 with an Nvidia GeForce 9500GT
and the latest driver from Nvidia (256.53), and with all the ports
up-to-date as of today.

python26-2.6.5_1 was compiled with standard options:

WITH_THREADS=true
WITHOUT_HUGE_STACK_SIZE=true
WITHOUT_SEM=true
WITHOUT_PTH=true
WITH_UCS4=true
WITH_PYMALLOC=true
WITH_IPV6=true
WITHOUT_FPECTL=true


Any help would be tremendously appreciated,

thanks in advance

giuseppe
