Firefox crashes immediately for me whenever a javascript script opens a
new window. Additionally, I am unable to use the arrow keys to navigate
any text input boxes, both single line and multiline. Also, GNOME
meta-keys have stopped working withing text input areas (i.e. ctrl-u
brings up the source dialogue regardless).

I don't recall seeing this before the latest revision.

Perhaps it has something to do with the reinstallation of firefox?
