Well when installing firefox it dumps core:

=> Automatic manual page handling
=> Running POST-INSTALL script actions
[1]   Segmentation fault (core dumped) LD_LIBRARY_PATH=...
[1]   Segmentation fault (core dumped) LD_LIBRARY_PATH=...
[1]   Segmentation fault (core dumped) LD_LIBRARY_PATH=...
=> Registering installation for firefox-2.0.0.18

Running gdb on the core file gives:

Core was generated by `firefox-bin'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

When running firefox from command line it dumps core too:

Core was generated by `firefox-bin'.
Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error.

I don't really understand why the above core dumps do not happen on sparc64 
port???
