I don't see this error on my system. I'm no expert but it appears to a font problem on your system. Macs seem to have a common problem with corrupt font caches. Flushing your font cache might fix your issue, but that's just speculation.
I found a font cache cleaning program online, Font Finagler 1.0, and installed it as root. The Font Finagler program is free for 40 font cleanings, after which it costs $11. I ran this as root, including all the different types of font caches in the inspection and cleaning. On my first try after rebooting the Mac I still had the same problem, but then a short time later the problem disappeared, so maybe the font cleaning was key. Thank you for suggesting flushing the font cache as a possible solution. Scott Waichler
