Is this really release-critical? I mean the bug report says
"When Java is enabled and the Netscape Fixed Width Font is set to Lucida
Console (Ttf) and I visit java.sun.com with Netscape . . . This bug
does not occur when the Netscape Fixed Width Font is set to Lucida
Typewriter (B&H)."
These are some pretty specific circumstances that can be easily avoided.
I realize it's nasty to crash a X server, and I wouldn't mind this bug
report going into the README.Debian file, but this occurs in too narrow
of circumstances that are too easily avoid to be a reason to drop the
package.
