Hello,

It appears the tiny attached program crashes Xnest if the line


        #if 0 /* halve width */

is changed to

        #if 1 /* halve width */


Basically then it Xft-paints text beyond 'bounding-area' of XShape.

In contrast, this program doesn't crash Xnest 1.2 and 1.3.


Greetings,

    Eeri Kask


P.S. To prove it is XftDrawString8() problem please change

        #if 1   /* enable/disable exposures */

to

        #if 0   /* enable/disable exposures */


few lines below and rerun.
