Firefox crashes after printing

A little more than half the time Firefox crashes after printing or print
preview. Print or preview works OK, then Firefox locks up and doesn't
respond to the mouse or keyboard -- screen refresh also fails when a
Firefox window is uncovered. Closing by clicking on the "X" in the
window decoration doesn't work, though Firefox can be terminated by the
popup that says "Firefox is not responding ...". The problem seems to
have started with version 1.5.0.2, which is the first version of Firefox
to have the print plugin libunixprintplugin.so in the plugins directory.

Has anyone else seen this? If so, does anyone know of a cure?

I'm running Firefox-1.5.0.2 under Fedora-5 with all updates installed.

Thanks - jon
