Sigil has very abruptly stopped working. I'm running XP, when I attempt to open an epub, Sigil crashes (eventually) with following error:

Error info: Critical: QFontEngineWin: GetTextMetrics failed ()
Sigil version: 0.5.3
Runtime Qt: 4.7.4
Compiled Qt: 4.7.4
Platform: Windows SysInfo ID 48

It used to work. It doesn't anymore. Nothing has changed. It did uninstall and then reinstalled Sigil. No difference, still no longer works.

Works fine with the same file running Ubuntu. Any thoughts?
