Mozilla crashes in DNS resolving process by IPv6 to IPv4 fallback correction.
(Bugzilla #86917 and Bugzilla #126755)
Probably, mismatching with DNS resolve mechanism occurred by this correction.

User requests a new HTTP request during DNS resolving is not finished before
request. Mozilla will crash.
This problem is not checking by IPv4. However, it is thought that it generates
in both IPv4 and IPv6.

reporter: any chance you can reproduce this in a debug build and provide a stack
trace?
I re-checked this problem on Mozilla current.
Mozilla current does not have this problem. And patched Mozilla current does not
have this problem with FreeBSD ports patches (www/mozilla), too.

This problem applied IPv6 to IPv4 fallback code to Mozilla 0.9.8 release
forcibly seems to be a cause.

This problem is peculiar to FreeBSD. It is unrelated to Mozilla.
