On one of my amd64 machines whose world was rebuilt from yesterday's current sources (17 Aug), I get a forced reboot when I try to start acroread7 and Opera. No questions asked, screen freezes, and the machine reboots. Before that I used to only get segmentation faults (with a bash.core left behind). Things have gone from bad to worse. But that is often a sign that a solution is just around the corner, right? Best Neal
