FWIW: Local v4 connections also work.  I looked for remote packets or
firewall hits, but didn't see any.  Mozilla's IPV4 packets just never
leave the box.

I did go to bugzilla to have a look and see if this was reported yet.
The number and type of bugs still needing work was very disheartening.

I was hoping to switch to galeon. Unfortunately it doesn't compile on
-current due to some pedantic complaint about NULL from g++.
(BaseHelpProtocolHandler.cpp:127: ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion
from `void *' in assignment)
