    Weird. Seems Mozilla will try to use gconf2 if found (this is neither a
    compile-time nor runtime dependency). However, all of the GConf methods
    are unimplemented. The gconf hang problem may be related to the recent
    reentrant resolver patches so rebuilding devel/gconf2 should fix the
    problem. Another solution would be to set

    user_pref("accessibility.unix.gconf2.shared-library", "xxx_goaway");

    in your Mozilla prefs.js file. This will stop Mozilla from loading
    gconfd in the future. The final solution would be to remove gconf2 from
    your system. Though this may be required by other ports.
