I patched on to off v3.4 and Firefox an Thunderbird do not segfault 
anymore. The do not start either. This was de feature on my 'production' 
server I could not reproduce on my test server. Maybe it has something 
to with the different type of nic's.

For the second attempt I branched of at 0fc9d1040313047edf6a39fd and 
applied your patch on top of it. Firefox an Thunderbird where back 
again. So your patch works.

Now I need some git-instructions. Apparently something else is broken. I 
branched of with:

git branch debug 0fc9d1040313047edf6a3
git checkout debug
applied the patch.
git commit -a (got commit 5c09c685ba2d36c3b905220d43ad1b47354e456eed back)

Now I want all commits in my master branch up until ref v3.4 added to my 
debug branch so I can bisect between 5c09 and v3.4
