>Description:
linux-firefox 2.0.0.4 hangs when opening a file: file->Open File...
linux-thunderbird 2.0.0.0 hangs when saving or opening an attachment.

The problem seems to be the same as decribed in:
"ports/91533: ports www/linux-firefox open file problem".
System: FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #13: Sat Dec 17 00:05:04 EET 2005

Description:
With latest gtk when i try to open file in firefox 1.5 it hangs :(
How-To-Repeat:
1) Be sure that you use latest linux-gtk2 from ports
2) Run firefox and try to open any file using file dialog. It will hang :(

Last comment - after investigations i found that problem was fixed in
latest (1.5.0.4) firefox.
>How-To-Repeat:
Open linux-firefox and try opening a file from the file menu.

Open linux-thunderbird and try saving an attachment, after clicking save as (or open) the application freezes.
>Fix:
same fix as mentioned for previous bug seems to work:
It seems that starting linux-firefox
out of your home directory (try "cd / && linux-firefox" for
example) makes the problem go away, but it's just a dirty
workaround. (from:http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2005-December/027960.html)
