How could I monitor this?  I've been building fairly steadily and been 
up for 42 days this time.  I know some people had reported problems but 
I haven't experienced any on my (relatively lightly used) machines.

I have not been able to get gtk2 to compile, but cannot remember the 
exact error.  The "pixops" does sound vaguely familiar though, and I do 
recall it was reported as an internal compiler error.

Try building the firefox-gtk1 package; that's the one I was working on, 
since all the prereqs built OK.  I did have to putz with the gdk-pixbuf 
build - had a missing symlink - but it worked.
