CGContextSelectFont spinlock

I'm trying to add some custom font support to an iPad app and I keep running into a spinlock from CGContextSelectFont.

Happens on SDK 4.0 Simulator and Device running 3.2.2.  I've narrowed down the code to:

		CGContextRef	context = CGBitmapContextCreate(&data, 1, 1, 8, 4, CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB(),
								kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast);
		CGContextSelectFont(context, [@"Comic Sans MS Bold" UTF8String], 24.0, kCGEncodingMacRoman);
		CGContextRelease(context);

Depending on where I put this code, sometimes it runs through just fine and sometimes it spinlocks.  The stack trace is just:

0: __spin_lock
1: ??

Where is it legal to call this function and why would it spin lock elsewhere?  Help!
