>Description:
When you install firefox-bin or firefox2-bin and had installed X.org from 
pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/xorg, firefox won't start. It gives a segfault.

$ firefox-linux
[1]   Segmentation fault (core dumped) "${prog}" ${1+"$...

>How-To-Repeat:
Just install NetBSD 3.1 or -CURRENT without XFree86 package and them install 
pkgsrc/www/firefox-bin or pkgsrc/www/firefox2-bin.

Them try:

$ firefox-linux
>Fix:
As suse100_fontconfig-10.0nb2 installs /emul/linux/etc/fonts/* with default 
paths, it doesn't know the X.org path from pkgsrc installation. The segfaults 
occur because it don't find the fonts.
The solution i found was to symlink x.org fonts to linux emulation ambient.

# ln -s /usr/pkg/xorg/lib/X11/fonts /emul/linux/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/
