Agrred.  Since Mozilla have indicated that Firebird is the
once-and-future-browser, it would seem that improvements are to be expected. 
I've been using Firebird since it's early days, and it's quite good. 
Nevertheless, 0.7 has more of a propensity to "just go poof" (TM)  than earlier
versions; segfault I presume.  Perhaps I should resume the practice of getting
the CVS versions.
