A temporary fix is implemented in 40.0_1,1; it works pretty well; have only
had one crash since.

But today the port was updated to 40.0_2,1, and 40.0_3,1 which failed to li=
nk
for me.  It seems that firefox is once again churning a little bit, as it
sometimes does.

Since firefox is quite a big build, I tend to make a package of the install=
ed
version before upgrading, so I can always go back if it works.
