Re-produce Steps: 1. Launch eclipse. 2. Choose Window->Preference, then select Workbench->Fonts, please refer to screen shot =>begin.jpg 3. Click OK button. 4. Repeat step 2 by re-selecting Fonts. Expected Result: Can do this correctly. Execution Result: 1. Error window pops up, please refer to screen shot =>CrashScreen.jpg 2. We find a file named "javacore.txt" in home directory, and the modified time is the right time when eclipse exits. We think it to be the java core dump file, plese refer to =>javacore.txt Comments: 1. This problem occurs on GTK driver with both JDK1.3.1 and JDK1.4.0. 2. This problem doesn't occur on Motif driver with both JDK1.3.1 and JDK1.4.0.

Verified in GTK2.2: This bug was resolved when I upgrade to GTK 2.2 in RedHat 8.0
Retest in GTK 2.2 and closed
Because the problem is fixed in GTK 2.2, but not fixed in GTK 2.0.6, we mark it as an OS limitation problem.
Verified in M5 build 200302061700. With GTK 2.0.6, bug still exists. With GTK 2.2.0, bug is resolved.
