Have you reported these via bugzilla? It's interesting that it's only
on the 64-bit architecture that this is an issue.
First, I want to make sure it is a bug, then I'd like to know more about
what this app does and how. I was also searching bugzilla for related
reports but it looks like there is no such error report so I'll probably
fill in new report. I just need to gather more info abut this problem.
Is this problem only noticed by Fernando and Me or there are other
people on the list suffering?
