Default 5.7 Nit PIcks and Fixes

This thread hopefully will serve to Identify and fix some minor issues with the 5.7 OpenBSD release

I'll start

Firefox-esr: Seems even more prone to core dump than the same version in 5.6.
I do not have a fix for this but hope that it will be fixed via M:tier updates

Xombrero: The text in the url window is white and can easily fixed by editing /usr/local/share/xombrero/xombrero.css as described in this upstream fix. With this fix Xombrero, on initial evaluation, seems both faster and more stable than firefox-esr on complex web sites.

Edit: Another nit was highlighting during copy/paste turned the text white and almost invisible. Using the latest xombrero.css from github fixes the problem.

On 5.7-stable/amd64, I have firefox-esr 31.6.0, which is a -stable port, as the -release version is 31.5.3.

There are 57 runtime dependencies for www/firefox-esr, but as far as I can tell, among those, only graphics/tiff has a -stable update.

Like shep I've given up on FF; I stopped running FF on OpenBSD 5.6. I am very happy with Chromium 40.0 on OpenBSD 5.7.

Code:
OpenBSD obsd.home.local 5.7 GENERIC.MP#0 amd64
