The radio button bug is resolved in the firefox 3.5 series.  At least  
a couple of people have reported successfully running firefox 3.5.x on  
their Alphas, and I have been running Gnuzilla Icecat (the FSF firefox  
derivative) 3.5.x for some months.

As iceweasel has finally caught up with the firefox 3.5 series, this  
bug should only remain in the iceweasel distributed with Alpha Lenny.   
I'm not particularly interested in tracking that one down.

But I've recently discovered that the current iceweasel (3.5.6-1) in  
Debian unstable crashes almost immediately on launching it.  That bug  
I will attempt to track down - I'll file a new bug report when I know  
more about it.

Cheers
Michael.
