Sounds like this could be a font cache problem:

Thread 0 Crashed:
0   ...ple.ApplicationServices.ATS	0x90370a86 AVLRFindBetterMatchInSubtree(AVLRPrivateTreeStruct*, AVLRNode*, AVLRNode**, short, unsigned char) + 302
1   ...ple.ApplicationServices.ATS	0x90370ad5 AVLRFindBetterMatchInSubtree(AVLRPrivateTreeStruct*, AVLRNode*, AVLRNode**, short, unsigned char) + 381

You can try deleting font caches, as described e.g. in <http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20071026081555971&query=font%2Bcache>. Please let us know if you keep encountering such crashes after following this procedure.
