I built a slightly modified version of this package with 'libnotify' support removed (removing it from both 'inputs' and from the 'arrange-to-link-libxul-with-libraries-it-might-dlopen' phase), and also attempting (but failing) to downgrade to gtk+-2. The resulting IceCat still uses gtk+-3, but so far it has not locked up my GNOME session. My hypothesis is that when 'libnotify' support is enabled, somehow a bug in gnome-shell is triggered. Mark
