Is it just me, or does mozilla break when things are compiled with -march=athlon-xp?
I'm not sure what happens, but mozilla starts to load, a window flashes up
briefly before mozilla quits.  Running dbg on it says that it segfaults in
WindowGetHeight() or some such function.   When I recompile _everything_ back
using -O -march=pentiumpro it works again.  I'm sure I've compiled it for
athlon-xp before on 5.0-RELEASE, has something changed to break it?
