[luatex] Attempt to build font name database fails with app crash

[Dieter Köhler]

Hi all,

When I use the \setmainfont{} command from the fontspec package, 
lualatex crashes while attempting to build a font name database.

The last lines from the log are:

> luaotfload | Font names database not found, generating new one.
>              This can take several minutes; please be patient.
> luaotfload | Updating the font names database:
> luaotfload | Scanning TEXMF and OS fonts...

A few seconds after this output lualatex.exe crashes. These are the 
details from the crash report:

I am using an up-to-date MiKTeX installation on Windows Vista. MiKTeX is 
installed in the "Program Files" directory. And I am running lualatex as 
user, not an admin.

Has anyone else experienced this bug too and knows about a workaround?

Best regards,
