I am really confused on how that is getting out, it is wrapped in an un-conditional try...except https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/blob/master/lib/matplotlib/font_manager.py#L1440
What do you mean 'hangs'? Rebuilding the font cache may take a long time the first time it runs.
Is this the complete trace-back? What did you run to generate this?

@tacaswell you are right. It just takes unexpected(to me) long time to finish, during which I thought it hangs.

No worries. It will be faster the next time!
