Hi Christopher - I think you need to start with the bind devs for this one,
given that it is bind that is crashing. Maybe it has a no daemon mode (-D?)
and you can start it under gdb and get a stack trace - that would probably
help them. If they indicate that there is something we should be aware of
on the firefox side, please circle back.

Thanks!
-P
