I was able to cause a crash at the same location by misspelling font
names in clawsrc and opening the font picker.  Claws still opened
correctly, though.

Can you open C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Claws-mail\clawsrc and
find the font entries?  There should be two groups, one under [Common]
and one under [CommonWin32].  They'll look like:

[Common]
message_font_gtk2=Monospace 9
print_font_gtk2=Monospace 9
small_font_gtk2=Sans 9
normal_font_gtk2=Sans 9
bold_font_gtk2=Sans Bold 9
use_different_print_font=0
derive_from_normal_font=1

[CommonWin32]
message_font_gtk2=Monospace 9
print_font_gtk2=Monospace 9
small_font_gtk2=Segoe UI 9
normal_font_gtk2=Segoe UI 9
bold_font_gtk2=Segoe UI Bold 9
