You're right.  I can't find this anymore either.  I thought I was
looking at some code which did all (most) of the magic in assembly but
come to think of it, that can't really be (the problem is that the
stubs need to be compiled with C++ to get the proper name-mangling). 
I suspect someting got me confused when looking at this originally. 
So it looks like upstream needs this fix, too.  The only problem is
that the change to the .inc file may affect 32-bit mozilla, which
would mean it might break the HP-UX build.  I'll see if I can test
that (or better still: find someone who can help test that).

In the meantime, it would be very helpful to have the patch in the
debian package (I haven't seen any crashes anymore since this patch
was applied; e.g., without this patch, trying to fetch any extensions
or so would also crash firefox).

Thanks,
