@dbsoft this is likely the same font issue you've been poking at?

Yes that is the font crash.
Try
https://dbsoft.org/whitestar/whitestar- ... ntel64.dmg
See if that crashes, it has the fix.
I was just waiting on the fix to see the 10.13 crash logs, to see if I need to disable it on 10.13 too, the original Mozilla code had it disabed Pre-Sierra (10.12) so my current fix disables it pre-Sierra too. I didn't notice that the code that disabled it was missing when I pulled the code in. It only crashes on some specific fonts so my limited testing on 10.7 missed it.

Great! But the fix is now in the public Pale Moon release, probably should just be using those.
