[Conkeror] armel conkeror doesn't enable text box input

[白い熊]

I'm using the armel conkeror build available currently in Debian's armel unstable repository. I have a severe problem
with the armel version, in that it doesn't allow you to select a text box to enter text. I.e. f will not bring the
cursor into the text box, even tab doesn't jump there, even a stylus tap will not put the cursor in to allow you to
enter the text.

Other than that, it works fine. However not being able to type into any text box is a critical problem. I've been
reading the mailing list archives, searched on the web, but haven't found any indication of what could be the problem.

The latest GIT checkout exhibits the same behaviour, so nothing per se should be wrong in the debian archive.

Anyone experiencing the same? Am trying to investigate what the prob, but it's not replicated on the PC and everything
else is working, so not sure what could be causing this...
