--- Comment #3 from Jan Beich <jbeich at FreeBSD.org> ---
Unfortunately, ia64 is not supported on 11.0-CURRENT anymore and the report is
obsolete with firefox 28.0 long being EOL.

As for powerpc or anyone else with xpcshell crashing on install without at
least backtrace such reports are not useful. Try for example,

  1. Disable OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS option (default, to avoid -fomit-frame-pointer
added by autoconf)
  2. Build with CFLAGS += -g -O0 ; STRIP = ""
  3. Don't clean WRKDIR
  4. Run gdb/lldb against the binary under MOZ_OBJDIR/dist/bin with .core file
  5. Get a stacktrace + locals
  6. File a bug noting what crashed and the likely culprit frame that doesn't
change in Summary

Note, DEBUG option builds with more than just symbols. It may disable
optimization (JIT, assembly, etc.) that cause the crash.
