Thank you - the problem is solved. I completely removed using "make uninstall"
then using my trusty Midnight Commander, hunted down all the remnants and
directories and removed them. I re-downloaded Dillo, installed from scratch and
it seems fine now.
I had tried reinstalling one already to no avail, but I had not removed /.dillo
before, in order to keep my bookmarks, cookies and rc file.
So I guess the lesson here is - when upgrading Dillo, wipe *everything* old
Dillo out completely, first.
As a sidepoint, I'm glad it wasn't the kernel - kernel 2.4.x has BIG
compatibility issues with my machine for some reason :-\
Thank you again. I hope this is of some use to someone :-)
