Mozilla hangs after latest glibc updates

[Christopher A. Williams]

I just updated FC1 this morning from Fedora Updates. There was a glibc
update and a couple of others there.

Now, mozilla hangs anytime you highlight the address bar or try to type
in any new location. Anyone else notice this?

Thunderbird seems to have the same problem as well. Wound up having to
D/L Opera just to be able to browse reliably.

Cheers,

Chris

No, can't confirm such issues. I'm running Mozilla Test Update and glibc
update (i686):

$ rpm -q mozilla glibc
  mozilla-1.4.1-18
  glibc-2.3.2-101.1

I had the same exact problem with mozilla and firebird.  In my case, it
had nothing to do with the glibc updates.  The problem seemed to be a
result of my poorly-done changes to my computer's hostname.  Have you
set your hostname recently?

Same problem here sort of but no hostname change - it now hangs
at the profile selection dialog

Mozilla is completely screwed since the glib updates,anybody try a
re-install or has it become more complicated that that?

FWFW, I have no problems with mozilla after glibc update.

Sounds like an odd problem.  Do you know how to generate a stack trace 
when it hangs?
