7 This may or may not be relavant. I build Pale Moon manually for my
8 home machines, using the Mozilla Firefox process. 64-bit builds worked
9 fine with GCC-6.4.0 on profile 13.0. Anything built with GCC-6.x under
10 profile 17.0 segfaults in 10-15 seconds after launching Pale Moon. A
11 custom-built GCC-5.4.0 builds a stable Pale Moon.

13 I'm currently doing a test build with GCC-6.4.0 on my 32-bit desktop,
14 having just finished the migration to 17.0. Current ICEWM 1.4.2 (and
15 1.4.0) crashes out of X to a text console when I click on the menu bar
16 at the bottom. I've dropped back to 1.3.12-r1 ...and copied the ebuild
17 over to a local overlay. I'm not liking profile 17.0 far.
