galeon-snapshot startup crash

[Lyndon Drake <lyndon@cs.york.ac.uk>]

Hi,

I just upgraded galeon-snapshot (after having it and mozilla-snapshot on
hold for a while), and now it crashes on startup.  I tried removing the
.mozilla, .mozilla-snapshot, .galeon, and .galeon-snapshot2 directories
from my home directory, but without any improvement.  A gdb backtrace is
below.  Any ideas?

Regards,
Lyndon
