I upgraded mozilla-firefox (from -r2 to -r3 IIRC) during GNOME upgrade (to 2.12). But of course many other things upgraded then so I am not 100% sure what broke firefox... But firefox was working perfectly before the upgrade. Now it does not start and gives strange different errors: 1. When started normally: No running windows found plugin_get_value 1 plugin_get_value 2 [and hang leaving firefox-bin process running] or /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/mozilla-xremote-client: Error: Failed to find a running server. No running windows found plugin_get_value 1 plugin_get_value 2 [and hang leaving firefox-bin process running] 2. When started after removing $HOME/.mozilla No running windows found *** Registering -webcal handler. *** Registering text/calendar handler. *** Registering webcal protocol handler. plugin_get_value 1 plugin_get_value 2 plugin_get_value 1 plugin_get_value 2 /usr/libexec/mozilla-launcher: line 119: 5659 Naruszenie ochrony pamięci "$mozbin" "$@" firefox-bin exited with non-zero status (139) [Naruszenie ochrony pamieci == SIGSEGV in Polish] 3.

please re-emerge mozilla-firefox this is caused by one of the libs that was linked against being updated after mozilla-firefox a revdep-rebuild should have caught this.
Ok, now I know what broke my firefox. It looks like my LDFLAGS are responsible (I double checked). This is really strange and probably means some bug in binutils or in some patch applied to firefox because I have whole system compiled with these LDFLAGS and _nothing_ breaks. Also firefox -r2 (or something like that) and all older versions worked perfectly fine for about one year and a half. Also (as I heard) such LDFLAGS are used in Ubuntu and there is some bug in Gentoo to use these as the default (there was even request for testing them or something...). I propose to filter LDFLAGS out for now in firefox ebuild and report bug upstream (to mozilla or to binutils or both) if anybody from Gentoo developers can reproduce this bug. Thanks for your help.
Your LDFLAGS are sane but not your problem. Please reopen and update summary if you are still having problems.
