Which version of emacs are you using? FWIW, I just had this problem
yesterday (although it choked on a different face) in emacs trunk
(24.4.x). But on my machine @work on (24.3.8) it is working fine.

It seems that htmlize is choking on invalid face definitions.
Somewhere you have a reference to a face "font-lock-comment" which
does not exist (the correct definition in this case is
"font-lock-comment-face"), so if you can find the customization that
refers to "font-lock-comment" and fix it you should be able to
generate the CSS.
