After upgrading the installation of Haiku nightly x86_64 from hrev59515 to hrev59523 on my main PC, Iceweasel no longer launches, crashing with an ‘illegal instruction’ error.
If I revert back to hrev59515, Iceweasel will launch again. I also tested with the other Firefox versions like Floorp and they have the same issue. Even Icedove has this issue so it must be something related to Mozilla apps. I can use GNOME Web fine so it’s not the Wayland layer causing the issue it seems.
I’ve even tested with a clean installation of hrev59523 I made on an external drive just in case it was something else on my Haiku installation causing it but the same issue occurs. It seems a change made between those two hrev’s has broken Iceweasel, at least for me. I tried the clean install on my Surface Pro 5 with an i5-7300U and it also has the same issue as my main PC with an i7-4790k.
I have attached a screenshot from when I run Iceweasel from a terminal. I can open a ticket if that helps. If there’s anything else I should attach, please let me know.

I’ve reverted to hrev59515 and it’s working on that.
Hah; thanks for merging this into the pre-existing thread. Let that teach me not to start a new thread before I’ve read all the new activity in the morning.
Thanks for all the work you and the other devs/contributors do to make Haiku better. With nightly’s there’s always a risk of things breaking but thanks for responding so quickly.
