 Oh, then the patch is FreeBSD specific and happens to work on NetBSD but not 
on Linux?
 
 My libc:
 
 # ls -l /usr/lib/libc[.-]*so*
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 238 2009-04-03 02:49 /usr/lib/libc.so
 
 # cat /usr/lib/libc.so
 /* GNU ld script
    Use the shared library, but some functions are only in
    the static library, so try that secondarily.  */
 OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf32-i386)
 GROUP ( /lib/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a  AS_NEEDED ( 
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 ) )
 
 
 # ls -l /lib/libc[.-]*so*
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1658350 2009-04-03 03:00 /lib/libc-2.9.so
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      11 2013-08-06 19:01 /lib/libc.so.6 -> libc-2.9.so
 
 
 Programms are usually linked against /lib/libc.so.6, e.g.:
 
 # ldd /usr/local/bin/firefox 
   linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
   libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7869000)
   libnspr4.so => /usr/local/lib/nspr/libnspr4.so (0xb7837000)
   libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/local/gcc47/lib/./libstdc++.so.6 (0xb774e000)
   libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7728000)
   libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/local/gcc47/lib/./libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb770d000)
   libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb75ad000)
   /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7887000)
   libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb75a9000)
   librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0xb75a0000)
 
 
 
 With the above patch, I get the initially reported error message. The GUI 
shows up nevertheless, but I can't klick on anything. Without the patch, 
firefox works fine.
 
 I also purged the .mozialla directory to simulate a fresh start. It has not 
helped. I need to have the patch the removed to get firefox running.
