There's a tentative firefox fix, but the problem is that the Leopard fix breaks firefox1.5 on my Tiger setup. I have fixed that new Tiger crash, but I don't have Leopard to make sure the 2nd fix didn't rebreak Leopard. If you want to test it out on Leopard download BOTH firefox1.5 files from here <http://cvs.snaggledworks.com/viewvc.cgi/fink/10.4/main/finkinfo/net/> and place them in /sw/fink/dists/local/main/finkinfo/, re-run 'fink index' and try to rebuild firefox1.5-shlibs (the version should be 1.5.0.12-1002).
