Line 439 of Revision 1.13 of generic/tkFont.c is a
panic() when the font subsystem is finalizing, yet
there are unfreed fonts.
Unfortunately, we know that some Tk widgets, notably
[text] and [canvas], do not always free the fonts they
are using. This panic() has been helpful in uncovering
those bugs, but it is not a good thing to expose to
end users. We should either remove it, or perhaps
disable it unless a debugging version of Tk is compiled.

the beta release, but I believe it is for 8.4.0.
