Weird font rendering issues and crashes

If web-page contains windows fonts, Opera do not render them or/and crashes.
Problem exists since 10.60 beta, builds tested 1147-1150. Other browsers have no problems.

Which OS are you using? Providing a link to the site you posted an image of would also help people confirm the problem.

I see no issues on Win 7, so it must be a Linux-specific thing.

Try to add necessary fonts to your fonts folder.

They are all in /usr/local/share/fonts as well as in other locations.
There is a hint. Zooming the page helps, but Opera often crashes several times. I think this bug affects zooming windows fonts with anti-aliasing or something like this.

Show continues. I've changed Tahoma fonts from wine by other ones from windows. Now web pages with tahoma embedded fonts look like Opera substitute Ubuntu font in abnormal way.
