Anytime I attempt to submit a form (i.e. do a POST), mozilla completely locks up. Usually I will see several of these messages in the console window: mozilla-bin in free(): warning: chunk is already free mozilla-bin in free(): warning: chunk is already free mozilla-bin in free(): warning: chunk is already free This has ONLY happened on machines that I have wiped clean and done a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.5. I have tried this on three machines, two are Dell machines, one is a IBM laptop. I do a clean install, cvsup to the latest port versions and compile/install XFree86 4.2 and the most recent mozilla. This has happened ever since whatever version of mozilla was around when FreeBSD 4.5 came out. I have tried playing with compiler settings, turning on/off optimizations, but it has not changed anything. I have a machine that's been running FreeBSD since 4.2 and been slowly upgraded to 4.5, and that machine has never had this problem. Again, I have done the exact same thing as on the machines that DO have the problem: I cvsup to the latest port versions, I have XFree86 4.2 compiled/installed and then I compile and install the latest mozilla. No problems ever since FreeBSD 4.2. Since this is so repeatable for me, it's odd that I haven't seen this reported anywhere on the newsgroups or on this mailing list. If an answer is readily available and I've simply missed it, please let me know. The linux-mozilla port does not have any of these problems on any of my machines. I can provide pkg_info listings for all the machines. The machine that does not exhibit this problem is running older versions of ORBit, Mesa, glib, gdk-pixbuf, gettext, and gtk, among other things. Again, the machine with all these older versions runs fine, it's the machines that grab the latest versions of all these libraries that seems to be having these problems, ever since February when FreeBSD 4.5 came out. I've also tried updating to the latest STABLE versions throughout these past few months and it has not made a difference either. Any help would be much appreciated!
