I think it's the tooltip that appears when you hover over an item on the tool-bar. So here's how I reproduced it: Run emacs -Q Click Options, Change Default Font..., then click OK. Hover your mouse over one of the icons on the tool-bar. After a second or two, emacs crashes. I wasn't able to crash emacs if I turned off the tool-bar (under Options, choose Hide/Show, then Tool-Bar). If I opened a menu item, it wouldn't crash unless my mouse passed over one of the tool-bar icons on the way to opening the menu item.

As CVS is down, I can't check in the immediate workaround - which is to add the uniscribe backend to x_create_tip_frame in w32fns.c so: register_font_driver (&w32font_driver, f); becomes: if (uniscribe_available) register_font_driver (&uniscribe_font_driver, f); register_font_driver (&w32font_driver, f); The bug still triggers with the same recipe if you do the following: (add-to-list 'tooltip-frame-parameters '(font-backend . "gdi")) but I can't reproduce the bug on GNU/Linux doing something similar (substituting "x" for "gdi"), so it still seems to be a Windows specific bug.
