Exactly, but it is a harmless work around and it is easy to patch. But for now, while there are still a lot of 2.3 and 3.3 boxes around it is reasonable to maintain this patch. That is the main reason i haven't upgraded my 3.2 tinderbox machine here. It forces me to stay on top of this know problem. I agree with the purify problem. I think it is the same thing. pete To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mozilla" in the body of the message
