[Bug 250538] [NEW] firefox crashes with Japanese IM

[Troy]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Firefox crashes if a Japanese language input method is active and the user closes a window.
E.g. if I have Anthy+Japanese IM active and close a tab, Firefox crashes.
This happens every time. Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 both have this problem.
Firefox is 3.0, and the same problem existed with the previous version.
