Thanks.  It sounds like your Emacs has most of its debug info removed,
so the backtrace supplies only a partial information.  Is it possible
for you to rebuild Emacs with -g3 compiler switch and then try to
reproduce the problem?

Alternatively, can you build the current emacs-29 branch of the Emacs
Git repository, and see if the problem reproduces there?  A similar
bug was fixed after Emacs 29.1 was released, so it is possible that
these crashes are already fixed in Git.

Please explain why you want to use these and not the default fonts
Emacs uses on your platform.

Can you show screenshots of the same text as Emacs displays by
default, and as it should display according to your preferences?

Thanks.
