I thought the nightly version is some kind of development/testing version.

The reason for my question is that the version in pkgsrc is really very 
unstable and crashes for no appearent reason. So next step was to test the 
official "release" version of FF.

I'm rebuilding it as we speak with the suggested option so I'm hoping that 
it's a bit more than just a logo thing.

Thanks for the help anyway and I'll be back when it's finished building 
(NetBSD on a not very fast laptop).

Regards,
Marco
