Can you remerge with: # FEATURES="nostrip noclean debug" USE="debug" \ CFLAGS="-march=k8 -Os -pipe -ggdb" \ CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -Os -pipe -ggdb" \ emerge mozilla-firefox and then get a back-trace again?
Do not add your other CFLAGS, as they might cause the backtrace to be unreliable ...
Builds and runs fine with those flags. It looks like firefox is no longer compatible with -fstack-protector. Ideally this should be fixed - I can imagine few applications that would beneft more from stack-protection than a web-browser!
Hmm, crap, yeah missed that in your CFLAGS. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 96869 ***
