This is turning into one of those upgrades where you get a big
knot in your stomache and say to yourself, "my god, what have I done"

Mozilla is not useable in my current state of LM 9.0:  Saving links
to disk is one thing, but even just selecting a menu item causes
mozilla to close with no diagnostics.

I have an strace output if anyone is interested; it appears to show
difficulty allocating memory, although there's lots to be had:

[garym@maya news]$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        255752     238280      17472          0       9484     107748
-/+ buffers/cache:     121048     134704
Swap:       603776          0     603776

[garym@maya news]$ rpm -qf /lib/libgcc_s.so.1
libgcc1-3.2-1mdk

strace ends with ...

old_mmap(NULL, 1625337856, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 
-1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
brk(0x698d6000)                         = 0x8acb000
old_mmap(NULL, 1625337856, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 
-1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
old_mmap(NULL, 1625337856, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 
-1 ENOMEM (Cannot allocate memory)
...
old_mmap(NULL, 32464, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE, 27, 0) = 0x414e9000
mprotect(0x414f0000, 3792, PROT_NONE)   = 0
old_mmap(0x414f0000, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 27, 0x7000) = 
0x414f0000
close(27)                               = 0
munmap(0x414d4000, 82054)               = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) ---

In the strace, all I do is load mozilla and click Edit/Preferences
