Hi All,


I posted last week;
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gnome/2006-October/015595.html

I'm still having the same problem.

The segfault is happening in libpthread, so I recompiled libpthread with
debug symbols.

I have also verified that no plugins are getting loaded. I have tried
starting firefox2 with and without the cli --safe-mode option.

Here is a log of firefox starting up, segfaulting, a backtrace from gdb,
and the entire package list for my machine.

To summarize what you will find at the above link, I'm running:
6.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE #2: Tue May  9 08:53:13 PDT 2006

The back trace is as follows:
(gdb) bt
#0  0x28c8f847 in kse_thr_interrupt () at kse_thr_interrupt.S:2
#1  0x28c789bf in sig_daemon (arg=0x0) at
/usr/src/lib/libpthread/thread/thr_sig.c:220
#2  0x28c85d29 in kse_sched_single (kmbx=0x8165d0c) at
/usr/src/lib/libpthread/thread/thr_kern.c:886
#3  0x286cc450 in ?? ()
Current language:  auto; currently asm
(gdb)

I built this package using the port from here:

I'm not subscribed to freebsd-gnome@ so please CC me on replies. Let me
know if there is any thing else I can do to try and help track down this
problem.
