Maybe it's just me, but the OS X latest-trunk builds have been really horrible
for a while now. I install the latest every week or so and give it a try, but  I
soon (between 5 minutes and 1 day) give up and install latest-1.2 instead.

latest-trunk certainly crashes more often, but it's the non-crash bugs that
bother me more. Links that fail to load and the window turns blank gray. Pages
that become unresponsive and I have to close the tab. The address bar fails to
update after clicking to a new URL. The personal toolbar uses black for
mouseover and unreadable white for click (instead of blue and blue). Just lots
of little problems that are hard to explain. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

Frankie, bugs need to be about specific problems. This is Invalid.

That said, loaded pages not displaying is already filed as bug 181987, grey
windows as bug 175939, etc.

You might find the Personal Toolbar appearance better by switching themes.
Mozilla comes with two, Classic and Modern, but the Pinstripe theme
(<http://www.kmgerich.com/pinstripe/pinstripe.html>) provides what I've found to
be the best Mozilla experience for OS X.
