Today, I upgraded Firefox 3.5.7 (built yesterday) to Firefox 3.6. After deleting ~/.mozilla (after I did a buckup, of course), I tried a fresh start of 'firefox3'. After firefox showed up, I realized that no option-field (File, Extras etc) can be used, they are dead and after a few seconds I clicked them, firefox3 is crashing.

Since I recompiled firefox 3.5.7 yesterday I was wondering if this is due to some 'false' lib or dependency. Since I figured that I have similar trouble with Thunderbird 3.0.1 after I installed it, I suspect a faulty library causing this behaviour. With Thunderbird 3, I never solved the problem although I tried to rebuild everything with thunderbird via 'portmaster -f'. I'll did this with firefox 3.6 also, but with no success.

The crashing is observed on two nearly identical SMP FreeBSD 8.0/amd64 STABLE boxes (make world of today), up-to-date ports. The crash is NOT observed on my private oldish UP box, nearly the same setup, OS at the same revision and ports up to date as of yesterday. Maybe this could be a hint.

Any hints or suggestions?

Regards,
Oliver
