I replaced the declaration of `myName` at the beginning of
`GlobalParams::loadPlatformFont`:

    char * myName = copyString(fontName);

With:

    char *myName;
    if ( strcmp((const char*) fontName, "ZapfDingbats") == 0 ) {
      myName = copyString("ZapfDingbatsITC");
    } else {
      myName = copyString(fontName);
    }

And it works:

However, the log output is a little worrisome:
