Awesome news Gavin.  I ran into the problem mostly when printing large graphics,
hopefully this might fix that as well.  

Hopefully if nothing else the Hardy release might include FF3 and with this patch maybe
a more stable OpenOffice.

This is great.  Thanks again for filing the bug Gavin, I sort of dropped the ball on
that back in August.
