I have been having the "Netscape crashes with bus error when a window is closed" problem for some time now. My system is up-to-date with potato. Last week, I decided to test this problem with every 'navigator-smotif-*' package. Every navigator-smotif-* package in slink and potato (that's versions 4.06, 4.07, 4.08, 4.5 and 4.6) was affected. BTW, this crash happens both when I hit the 'close window' button and when I hit the 'Close' option in the 'File' menu. But it doesn't happen every time I do this. My impression is that it even has begun to happen less often, recently. Remco -- rd1936: 12:20am up 15:49, 5 users, load average: 2.25, 2.30, 1.96
