Not a mozilla issue, I think.  Reassigning to gcc-porting and cc'ing sparc so you can fight it out between you. ;-)

[Comment 3 Ciaran McCreesh 2004-06-18 08:32:34 UTC]

What're your system specs? I suspect you're hitting one of two issues:
* not enough RAM
* flaky kernel

[Comment 4 Jason Wever (RETIRED) 2004-07-06 20:46:49 UTC]

Are you still experiencing this problem?  Does it happen with firefox-0.9.1 as well?
