There's already a bug for this, filed by Casey on the 15th. :)
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189189

Last I heard he was on RedHat 7.1 running ActiveState Perl...  which threw
most of us because we'd never seen ActiveState on Linux :)  Last action on
the bug I believe was he was trying to install an official RedHat
distribution of Perl to see if that fixed it.
