How to repeat the problem:
Make a vanilla install of 4.2-RELEASE.
Get a mozilla port without the explicit -lgcc_r (I don't remember the date, but
it can be checked in cvsweb).
make install.
The resulting binary will segfault when started.
You don't need to change anything else. I verified it by myself.
However, like I've said before - the binary from 4.1 will work fine (I'm still
using one on my home computer).
