From what I could see in gdb, it looks like some problem with memory access, and it started happening on the Firefox/Mozilla side (all Mozilla products, actually) with the switch of the main binary to jemalloc - that's why Firefox 3.0.x didn't show it while Firefox 3.5 does.
Even new Firefox/Mozilla source on openSUSE 11.1 works fine, so I suspect that somehow the new libgcc (or something we picked up at a similar time) and jemalloc don't like each other when it comes to memory management. Firefox somehow accesses GTK stuff for print and print preview, AFAIK, maybe that helps to find a clue as to what is exactly happening. In https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473428 where I mentioned this on the Mozilla side, a run under valgrind was requested, but I don't really have a clue how to find anything out there. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
