In other words, '<input type="file">' tags produce a button that doesn't
work for you.  Very odd.  Works for me™.

Does downgrading to some previous version from testing or
http://snapshot.debian.org/ help?  Do you use GNOME, KDE, or some other
environment?  Does "dmesg" reveal anything having segfaulted?

Puzzled,
