  • Spent three days chasing what looked like a dozen random crashes on heavy forum pages, and it came down to a few real roots: NetSurf freeing things while they were still in use mid-operation (fixed by deferring all destroys to a quiescent "death row" tick), a freed string being recycled as a scheduler callback, a broken CW8 vtable slot jumping into ROM, and the old page being torn down mid-load of the new one (fixed by deferring the close one tick). Result: stable deep forum browsing on real G3 hardware verified, tagged, and now ported onto the QuickJS line. Close to the next release!
    It's revert season over here for MacSurf but sometimes that's how it goes. Back to the drawing board to get this 1.5 out sooner than later.
    I am hoping to get MacSurf 1.5 out this weekend with better support for our favorite forum, 68kmla, so you can browse and post on OS 9. Some of the features I have implemented in MacSurf are not even in the upstream build of NetSurf.
