I've discovered other issues, too. Well, one, at least.

If you choose certain fonts, "CMU Typewriter Text" being one of them, 
NetBeans will crash. But before it crashes it will record that font 
selection in the appropriate settings file. Then, when you launch it 
again, it will first inform you that either it has crashed or it is 
still running and when you tell it to go ahead and start, it will crash 
again in the same way it did when you first selected the culprit font. 
And from there on, it's just the same thing over and over again.

The only way out is to edit 
"~/.netbeans/4.0/config/Editors/text/x-java/fontsColors.xml" and 
replace the name of the problematic font with an acceptable one, such 
as "Monosopaced" or "Lucida Sans Typewriter".

You have been warned!
