This is just an acme font bug that causes acme to suicide.

In the latest 9vx I had left turned on the flag
that causes core dumps when 9vx panics,
but I forgot that that flag also causes 9vx to
abort when any program suicides (useful when
you suspect 9vx is the problem, not the program).
I changed the flag not to do that.

So now acme suicides but 9vx continues.
