I'd like to see what the gcc folks have to say about this before I add workarounds for broken compilers. Is there a gcc bug filed that I can reference? I have not yet opened a bug against gcc. I only have the one against binutils. I'll add a reference. We just updated the Firefox version in Fedora/development from 2.0 to a 3.0 pre-release version, which improves performance, memory usage, and fixes many bugs and crashes. Closing as CANTFIX since we aren't fixing bugs filed against 2.0 now that 3.0 is in. If this bug is still present in rawhide using a Firefox 3.0 version, please re-open this bug. Thanks and Happy Holidays |
Please apply the following patch to the firefox.spec. I'll try to fix the problem with upstream (gcc), as this seems to be a compiler bug for me; First I thought it's relaxed binutils, but it wasn't...
