What I find is that the crashes stop as long as net.inet6.ip6.ip6only is set to zero. When I set it to one the crashes continue as before: When trying to fetch mail with mozilla I get error messages that the connections to my pop3 and imap servers are refused; the screen then freezes up and the machine reboots spontaneously. Naddy Weisgerber seems to be implying in the "ports" mailing list that the default value of ip6only has recently changed to 1. If this change happened on July 25, as I suspect, then perhaps this is not a new bug at all, but has just been unmasked by the new default value of ip6only?
