to add some more diagnostics: I run firefox3 from a xterm and when it
tries to present the stream in hangs for a while and then produces the
timeout message:

$ LANG=C firefox3

maybe this helps someone to help me :-)

and yes, linprocfs is mounted:

# mount
/dev/ad2s1a on / (ufs, local, noatime)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
/dev/ad3s1a on /usr/local (ufs, local, noatime)
procfs on /proc (procfs, local)
/dev/md0 on /tmp (ufs, local)
linprocfs on /usr/compat/linux/proc (linprocfs, local)

the kernel was build on  March, 23 after CVS update:

# uname -a
FreeBSD tiny 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #0: Mon Mar 23 23:47:06 CET
2009     guru at vm-naranja.Sisis.de:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386
