Above, the parameter val seems to be neither a symbol nor a fixnum, and
that meads to an assertion in XFIXNUM.

And here, we see that val comes from a Lisp face

    FONT_SET_STYLE (prefer, FONT_WEIGHT_INDEX, attrs[LFACE_WEIGHT_INDEX]);

which could mean the parameter attrs is bogus.

Which would mean paramter attrs above is bogus.

Which could mean the parameter face is bogus in the above.

Same here...

Hm. I'm quite out of my comfort zone here, regarding fontsets and fonts,
but it looks to me as if we're acting on a, for some reason, invalid
face, which would come from

  face_id = FACE_FOR_CHAR (f, FACE_FROM_ID (f, face_id), c, pos, Qnil);

in Finternal_char_font. Maybe one could take a look at *f->face_cache here?
