 Although it makes no sense, it does seem to work. If it doesn't fix the 
 bug, it at least increases the number of saves before a crash.
 
 I say it makes no sense because libgnome doesn't show up anywhere in 
 Firefox's dependency tree. But a make deinstall from ports/x11/libgnome 
 allows Firefox to save every image from www.freebsd.org/logo.html. Doing 
 a make reinstall causes Firefox to die on the second image.
 
 Uninstalling libgnome is hardly a viable fix as it will break several 
 other ports....
