[DRE-maint] [Bug 573426] Re: Segfault in gtkmozembed.so

[cmdr_tofu]

I have a similar problem using example code from the Ruby-Gnome2
website.

ro at rtablet:~/ruby/gnome/rubyzilla$ dpkg -l |grep mozembed
ii  libgtk-mozembed-ruby                 0.19.3-1ubuntu3                                 ruby binding of GtkMozEmbed, gecko renderer
ii  libgtk-mozembed-ruby1.8              0.19.3-1ubuntu3                                 ruby binding of GtkMozEmbed, gecko renderer
ii  libgtk-mozembed-ruby1.8-dbg          0.19.3-1ubuntu3                                 ruby binding of GtkMozEmbed, gecko renderer
ro at rtablet:~/ruby/gnome/rubyzilla$ ./rubyzilla.rb

Problem did not occur in Hardy, or Karmic, but does occur in Lucid.  I'm
not exactly certain what the problem is :(

I've been getting some other segfaults on this machine in Firefox and Epiphany, although it's not clear yet whether they're related.
