OK, for now just add GET_FROM_IMAGE to the assertion, like this:

  eassert (it->method == GET_FROM_BUFFER
	   || it->method == GET_FROM_DISPLAY_VECTOR
	   || it->method == GET_FROM_STRING
	   || it->method == GET_FROM_IMAGE);

recompile, and see if this gets you past the crashes in
push_prefix_prop when those inhibit-* variables are set to t.  If it
does, then let's see if running with those inhibit-* variables set to
t can trigger the crashes due to invalid face ID in
get_glyph_face_and_encoding.

Thanks.
