        Iceweasel was updated to version 40.0.3-3 for the unofficial
        Debian PPC64 port. I installed it inside my Debian PPC64 chroot.
        Unfortunately it doesn't start either.<br>

              Hi All,<br>
              <br>
              Iceweasel and Firefox 40.X.X PowerPC aren't available for
              all Ubuntu<br>
              flavours and for Debian with 32-bit userland currently.<br>
              <br>
              There are build problems:<br>
              <br>
              Iceweasel 40 build status:<br>
              <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                href="https://packages.debian.org/de/experimental/iceweasel"
                rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://packages.debian.org/de/experimental/iceweasel</a><br>
              <br>
              Firefox 40 build status: <a moz-do-not-send="true"

                rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/</a><br>
              <br>
              But iceweasel 40.0.3-1 was released for the unofficial
              Debian PPC64 port. I<br>
              installed it inside my Debian PPC64 chroot. Unfortunately
              it doesn't start.<br>

              Error messages:<br>
              <br>
              too much recursion<br>
              Segmentation fault<br>
              <br>
              Is anyone working on resolving this issue?<br>
            </blockquote>
            Could you try what happens if you change the stack size
            limit?<br>
            <br>
            ulimit -s 16384 (I believe the current default that you can
            check with<br>
            ulimit -a is 8192).  Could even try something even bigger
            like 65536.<br>
            Then run firefox from that terminal where you changed the
            limit<br>
            temporarily.<br>
            <br>
            Certainly with 64 bit pointers and 64 bit registers, ppc64
            could be using<br>
            quite a bit of stack space in the javascript engine, which
            appears to<br>
            be the thing that always causes this error in firefox (seems
            to happen<br>
            everytime they change the engine in a major way, and then
            things get<br>
            tweaked until it works again, then it gets broken again).<br>
