This is WINE building the font metrics, it's perfectly normal (as far as I've
come to find out)... I once had a problem with WINE applications crashing at
this point, and I found out that it had something to do with using the windows
fonts... *shrugs* I'm not sure why or how, but I decided that I could do
without the fonts, and I chucked them.
