I'm using cairo 1.12.2, but no, I have not seen the problem. > The crashes were completely consistent - after running Firefox/Gimp > with the --sync option I found that stdout/stderr were exactly the > same over 10 runs for each application (apart from the process > identifier in the Firefox log).

On my development system, I updated to cairo-1.12.4, overwriting the 1.12.2 version. There were no problems either rebuilding cairo or running firefox. I'm using xorg 7.7. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
