Yes, he has just rebuilt his world and kernel again, using the latest
revision, and he found that the problem disappeared. Although
SeaMonkey's CPU usage still doesn't snap to 0 during inactivity.

No, I deliberately didn't build a new world (because it takes ~10 times
as long to build a world+kernel combination compared to just a kernel).
I always had the impression that using an older world with a more recent
kernel is almost always supported, and the exceptional cases are noted
in the UPDATING file, as a quote shows: "User utilities using
SIOCAIFADDR, SIOCAIFADDR_IN6, e.g. ifconfig(8), need to be recompiled.".
