This was my feeling as well, applying some of the trivial patches to fix known bugs and holes was worthwhile in itself, but it seems rather half-hearted to release a security update which essentially says: "This update fixes XX bugs, but YY security related bugs still exist". > I haven't looked at the code in quite some time.

Everybody using Debian Stable? Although I'm not too sure of the number of people that would be. I know that all my servers are stable machiens, but they don't have much in the way of X11 libraries installed upon them, let alone Mozilla.
