 Right. Wierd one.

crom # cat /etc/cron.daily/get-mozilla-daily.sh

rm -rf mozilla

 And then it does nothing. Most odd. Strace shows thousands of:

poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5,
events=POLLIN}], 3, 9) = 0
gettimeofday({974983229, 517716}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({974983229, 517923}, NULL) = 0

 Aha. /var/log/messages says it can't find a net-pf-10 module when I
started mozzie. Longword here assures me this is IPv6! So, I've compiled
that up....and check it when I can be bothered to reboot. Anyone know why
that would affect mozzie ?
