[tex-live] TL2004 pdftex crash on Mathematica font Math1.pfa

The included archive contains a test set where I can reproduce a crash 
of TL2004 pdftex (segmentation fault). The crash only happens when the 
Math1.pfa font is added to pdftex.map, which is why I have added a 
pdftex.map to the archive. This archive is test-complete for the crash.

TL2004:

> This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.20a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.3)

The run ends with

> loading : Context Support Macros / PDF (2004.10.26)
> ) <e_sigw.pdf, id=1, 468.3066pt x 336.72198pt> <use e_sigw.pdf> 
> [1{pdftex.map}
> <./e_sigw.pdfSegmentation fault

This example does also crash with TL 
Build/source.development at 2005/01/07:15:00:00.

WIth a TL2003 based install, I get no crash:

> This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.11a-2.1 (Web2C 7.5.2)

The run ends normally:
