With 1.43 of sys/compat/linux/linux_signal.c linux netscape 7.2 still
hangs. Reverting to 1.41 fixes it. According to top, it's stuck in
select() when it hangs, if that's any help. I tried using ktrace on the
process, but I got an error "out of kdump objects." I'll be glad to test
another patch if you like.
