On a Pandaboard with RISC OS 5.19 using
http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/builds/riscos/netsurf-2012-09-30_10-23-17.zip
it's possible to trigger a freeze every time by loading any web page and
pressing return several times in a !Nettle
(http://www.riscos.info/packages/NetworkDetails.html#Nettle) window.

I've been using the latest version of netsurf built with the autobulder
(revision 5854 and gcc 4.6.4) locally for some time. I haven't had any
lockups at all with this.

Chris.
