 While trying a new kernel I found that,
 wether gtkam segfaults on macppc depends on the kernel.
 On the identical setup just rebooting with a different
 kernel version
 
 it works on 2.1 RC3 
 # uname -a
 NetBSD ibook 2.1_RC3 NetBSD 2.1_RC3 (IBOOK) #7: Wed Aug 31 22:39:46 CEST
 2005  rudi@ibook:/mnt/netbsd-2.0/src/sys/arch/macppc/compile/IBOOK
 macppc 
 
 while it fails on 2.99.15 as previously described in the PR
 $ uname -a
 NetBSD ibook 2.99.15 NetBSD 2.99.15 (IBOOK) #7: Mon Jul  4 23:40:38 CEST
 2005  rudi@ibook:/mnt/netbsd-current/src/sys/arch/macppc/compile/IBOOK
 macppc 
 
 
 Unfortunately on 2.1 RC3 Mozilla exhibits the screen update problem
 -horizontal lines when scrolling down- so I will have to switch between
 the two kernel versions.
