Hi all, I have access to two FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE i386 boxes. Both have up-to- date ports. I ran into an unusual problem. On one box, I could not read my Hotmail e-mails in firefox. On the other box, I could. (On both boxes I could see my Hotmail inbox. however, when clicking on an e-mail one box would have the upper and lower headers (reply, forward, etc.) immediately following one another and the other would display the actual message.) I did some digging, and after a while, I found the difference. On one box I had built firefox using clang. On the other box I used gcc. The gcc-built firefox works properly with Hotmail. The clang one does not. I was able to confirm this by uninstalling the working firefox and rebuilding with clang. The problem was perfectly reproduced. Reinstalling the gcc-built firefox (I had made a backup package) fixed the problem. I have no idea how to get more detailed information for you, but if someone can give me some directions I'd be happy to help further. Cheers, DMK
