Hey

You will need the following patches to be used on FreeBSD too for printing:

You can get them at 
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/www/chromium/patches/

Note that chrome only supports printing to PDF files therefore you won't be
able to print to lpd. Only CUPS is supported, so you will also need to have the 
gtk cups
module to be installed.

Excellent! I just noticed printing does not crash chromium on openbsd. Not sure why I didn't think to compare.

PDF printing is great ... even a no-op is fine. It's just a pain when chromium crashes just as you click to save/print your boarding pass :-D Anyway, I will leave to FreeBSD port maintainer to apply as they see fit :)

These patches seem small enough to be reviewable (i.e. not like the BSD "monster patch" I was told about in #chromium). Are they being gradually accepted upstream. The patch review process seems fairly serious so I wonder if there's someway to accept a large set of patches and "catch up".
