Hello all,

I have some time to test some software out under -current.

I saw some patches got commited to pkgsrc for firefox since the last
time I tried, so now after a lengthy compile the thing managed to load
the homepage correctly!

However on complicated sites like gmail the thing "bus error"s or
"memory fault"s and core dumps. I disabled javascript and can access
gmail, but other sites cause it to core dump, and even to kill X (if
more info is needed please tell me what and I will post it). Trying
tabbing sometimes works, sometimes core dumps.

What use can I be to help getting it work at least semi-stably
(gmail!)? (ie. testing things)?

I'm just about a fairly-competent end-user but nothing approaching
developer so you'll have to be patient with me!

Amadeus
