             Bug #: 29524
           Summary: Firefox 9.0.1 crashes immediately
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.28
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: wu.m at arcor.de
    Classification: Unclassified


The windows program that I run under Wine creates HTML files locally and
invokes Firefox (to be exact, Firefox for Windows, installed under Wine) to
display them. This used to work well with Firefox 8.0. When Firefox upgrades 
itself to 9.0.1 (which it does for me since January 2012), I get a message 

   The program firefox.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to
close...

and the Firefox window is not opened. The terminal shows

wine: Unhandled illegal instruction at address 0x1a4000b (thread 0025),
starting debugger...

I can then restore Firefox from a backup, and all is well for awhile.

I encountered the problem with Wine 1.2; I am now running Wine 1.3 and the
problem still exists.
