There are two instances in cairo-scaled-font.c, in lines 480 and 2827.
Both of them read

    scaled_font = (cairo_scaled_font_t *) page->cache_entry.hash;

and the pointer is dereferenced afterwards.

I agree with your assessment that this should really be a hash value
only, and using the lower bits might work for that (although the
bottommost bits are probably all zero due to alignment, so it is not a
very good hash), but fixing that requires more changes.
