It depends if it gives an improvement: You need the SMP kernel with the patch from Holger Veith (14.106) to avoid the hang on DLL unloading.
As a resolution I see the following: To provide a single package only, allow DLL patching on a user's system (both forth and back) and either link or ship the scripts and executable. An option would be to create a separate package for patching and to refer to it in the readme.

I started to get a similar issue except it crashed in pmmerge and cascaded through a bunch of other system DLLs which I also fixed by emptying the download manager. in my case it crashed when starting to download.
I had lots of shared memory available, about 240MBs and may well be a bug in the widget code somewhere :(
I guess eventually I'll have to attempt to build a debug version and try to track it down.
I'd advise everyone to keep the list of downloaded files pruned.

Just to clarify: Does the 14.106 kernel already have the patch, or does it need it?
I am seeing Firefox hang the desktop when it closes, every once in a while. I haven't really figured out what triggers the problem, but I am thinking that it has something to do with viewing PDF files. It is only recently (since the 24 versions, I think) that PDF files have started to display, without messing around with other programs. At least that part seems to work okay.

Holger wrote (AFAIR) that it should have. Many years after Holger had sent it to Mensys, Steven most likely included it in 14.106. Steven is the one to ask.

Beside the missing default setting
--- Code: ---dom.ipc.plugins.enabled;false
--- End code ---
(thanks Dave for posting this), I have no sound [1] with SeaMonkey 2.21b1.
It works with 2.14. I have created a new profile for to check. Does anyone with Firefox 24 have the same behavior?
