I have launched in background the script

#!/usr/bin/tcsh
while 1
sync
end

to write the changes of

strace -o netscape-crash netscape &

on disk.

If anyone want the strace output of the crash I can send it via email
tomorrow not via modem, because it takes 16982kbytes :).

The last lines are:

sigreturn() = ? (mask now [])
lseek(10, 0, SEEK_END) = 172032
lseek(10, 98304, SEEK_SET) = 98304
read(10, "n\0\311\17\305\17\237\17\233\17k"..., 4096) = 4096
lseek(10, 0, SEEK_END) = 172032
lseek(10, 122880, SEEK_SET) = 122880
read(10, "\\\0\320\17\314\17\212\17\206\17"..., 4096) = 4096
lseek(10, 0, SEEK_END) = 172032
lseek(10, 118784, SEEK_SET) = 118784
read(10,

where the descriptor 10 is:

open("/home/andrea/.netscape/history.db", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 10

I hope this helps.
