OK, I've checked, and as far as I could see, putting on libgnomeui.i386 
libbonoboui.i386 didn't hurt an x86_64 machine, and it installed via yum 
just fine.

I have put those in the errata area with the firefox.  They should be 
there by the time this e-mail get's to you.  If they aren't, give it 5 
or 10 minutes.  You might also need to do a 'yum clean all' first for 
yum to see them.

One thing I found while doing the check, was that my firefox bookmark 
script in sl-release doesn't work with this new firefox.  I'll have to 
fix that for the next sl-release.
