Thunar crashes when I open the behavior tab on preferences

Hello archers!

Thunar is crashing when I try to edit its behavior.
I open the file manager click Edit, then Preferences, then Behavior and then BOOOMMMM...

It happens with both xfwm and with compiz (series 0.9).
I use the nouveau driver.
My system is updated.

Any output when you run Thunar from a terminal?

FlowIt,

Here it is:

 $ thunar
thunar: cairo-scaled-font.c:459: _cairo_scaled_glyph_page_destroy: Assertion `!scaled_font->cache_frozen' failed.
Aborted (core dumped) 

I found out the issue is on the font. I changed the font from terminus to sans and now I can access and edit the behavior tab of  thunar preferences.

But I prefer the terminus font over the sans. What solution for this?

None.

It's an upstream bug; at least two years old.
=> Don't use the murrine engine or bitmap fonts.

See eg.
