OK, I've got a monolithic build of icecat 3.6.8 completed and installed and that is working fine on Debian Unstable.
I've just done a bit of browsing with iceweasel 3.5.11 in Unstable and it works fine until I selected the history menu item at which point it segfaulted. I'll see if I can get a back trace and make a bug report.
BTW, implementing the arch specific atomic ops for the Chromium component of Firefox/iceweasel doesn't look too difficult. Pinching some code out of the kernel should go a long way. I might have a go at that some day soon.
Cheers Michael.
