>Description:
fontconfig (and packages that use it, like ethereal and firefox) crash on the 
openwin TrueType directory.  This probably isn't a pkgsrc bug, but a good work 
around is needed since this makes the latest firefox (with security fixes) 
unusable on my Solaris machines.

Bus error (core dumped)

>Fix:
(re)move /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/ directory.
