Firefox 1.0 cores while printing

Am I the only one that has problems printing with firefox?

Other than this one problem, it's my favorite browser, hands down.

Here's what I have:

Relevant ports:
firefox-1.0_3,1
firefox-remote-20040803
flashplugin-firefox-0.4.12
cups-base-1.1.22.0
cups-lpr-1.1.22.0

The problem occurs on FreeBSD 4.10 Release and 5.3 Release with
xorg-6.7.0_1 and on 4.10 Release with XFree86-4.3.0,1.

I have the TabBrowser preferenced 1.1.1 extension installed, and the
Noia 2.0 Extreme theme (2.79) installed.

It does NOT happen with Mozilla.
It always leaves a firefox-bin.core file behind - caused by a segfault.
It happens with any page I try to print, not just complex pages.

I cannot find anything directly relevant at firefox central, but bug
#268660 seems similar:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268660

The details say that cupsd is not running, but it is on my system.

Anyone?

TIA
Lou
