This is definitely the cause.  SSL support is disabled due to linking
problems with NSS and OpenSSL.  The problem manifests itself in
applications such as Galeon and Epiphany.  Anytime OpenSSL and NSS link
together, bad things tend to happen due to some symbol conflicts.=20

Now for the good news.  I think I've fixed the problems by linking NSS
with -Bdynamic.  I'm still shaking things out in mozilla-devel, but if
everything looks okay, I'll roll the changes into mozilla, then enable
SSL support in gnomevfs2.  In the meantime, if you use mozilla-devel, or
you don't care about Galeon or Epiphany, you can change the gnomevfs2
Makefile to enable OpenSSL support, and you should be good to go.
