 Update:
 
 (1) It isn't a compat problem, recompiling seamonkey on the system
 from January still resulted in one that segfaults on startup.
 
 (2) It doesn't happen if it can't open the drm stuff, so using a
 second X server under a separate uid is an (annoying) workaround.
 
 (3) I updated the machine to 20200310 (yesterday) and it still
 segfaults, though I haven't tried recompiling it again yet.
