FreeBSD 9.0/10.0 amd64 (CLANG): mysterious client crahses when typing left/right arrow key

[O. Hartmann]

Since yesterday after a make world on both FreeBSD versions I realize a 
strange behaviour in several GTK clients (gq for instance, freshly 
installed yesterday) and Firefox and Thunderbird (they have not been 
recompiled now for days).

This behaviour occured earlier this year on FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT, around 
July. I tried to install FreeBSD Current compiled with CLANG on a 
Core-i5 driven notebook with option --mtune=native, --mtune=i7 or even 
avoid using --mtune= and then it occured that the whole system was crap, 
since typing of TAB key immediately exited the shell or typing the arrow 
keys resulted in the same.

This happened NOT when system got compiled with --mtune=core2 on that 
Core-i5 driven Notebook (Dell Latitude E6510)!

I didn't test this behaviour on that notebook yet, but whill this night.

The notebook have had a GENERIC kernel that time when the problem 
occured, now I use on all boxes custom kernel and these lines seem to be 
specificially for the terminal emulation:

                                         #options        SC_TWOBUTTON_MOUSE

# Enable VESA

Any idea?
