Yeah, I know. I did it yesterday to see if it helped.  I still can't 
make ogg123 crash (and never could), but I have noticed that firefox 
has started behaving better.

Until about 2 weeks ago, I had forgotten that I had libmap.conf pointing 
to libc_r.  When switching it back to libpthread, firefox went to hell.  
After the buildworld, it seems to be as stable as it was with libc_r.  
Note the use of the word "seems".  There were times with libpthread 
that it seemed stable too, but I dont remember it not crashing or 
locking up for this length of time before.

I'm pretty sure that most of the good effects can be had by just doing a 
world build.  There don't seem to be all that many static constructors 
in C++ shared libraries.
