 Sounds fun. There must be a bug in the build tools you are using that is
 not present in mine.

 Are you able to build in a fresh VM with a fresh copy of Xcode and yasm? I
 built with Xcode 3 on OS 10.6 32bit and yasm 1.2.0.

 Runa: It's definitely not any image that will crash it. I can browse to
 some sites with images just fine. Sites with jpegs work for sure, which I
 think rules out jpegturbo+yasm. I am changing the title back to
 nyt+news.google.com until we find out what image type actually causes the
 crash (if it is even images at all).
