Details
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.0 i586; en-US; 0.7) Gecko/20010105
BuildID: 2001010517
When using focus-follows-mouse, the browser completely crashes when the mouse
pointer enters any browser window while some text is selected for
copy-and-paste. It doesn't happen when using click-to-focus (as is standard on
most systems).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Open Mozilla and an xterm. Set your focus policy to focus follows mouse in your
window-manager (only tested with KDE2).
Now select some text in the xterm with your left mouse button. Then mouse the
pointer in the browser window.
Actual Results: Browser crashes the instant the pointer enters the window.
Expected Results: No crash.
It also seems to happen with selected text inside the browser window, eg. when
copying the URL in the address bar to an external app.
Not able to reproduce the crash.
2001-011021, KDE2, Qt 2.2.1, RH6.2+all upgrades.

Another test with crash: KDE2 clipboard tool actions enabled. Enter URL in a
xterm. Double click on the URL. Mozilla will crash:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x40283b94 in _IO_fputs (str=0x8644c10 "clearing PRIMARY clipboard\n",
fp=0x40323aa0) at iofputs.c:39
39 iofputs.c: No such file or directory.
When the KDE2 clipboard tool is turned of, the crash doesn't occur. I haven't
upgraded to KDE 2.0.1 yet.
That might just explain it.
I use KDE 2.0.1 here. With "Clipper clipboar tool" on panel, set to "Actons
enabled", and "Focus follows mouse" I am unable to reproduce the crash following
described procedues.
It would seem this problem has been fixed in KDE 2.0.1

there was a bug in kde's clipboard tools a while ago that caused mozilla to
choke. maybe this is it. if so, we should release note it.

The bug seems gone to me in Mozilla 0.8. I am currently unable to crash the
browser using the method I've described earlier.
