When I open firefox and go log into gmail, after entering my login info
I briefly see the gmail loading screen and then firefox crashes.  This
happens approximately half of the time.  I ran it from the command line
in hopes of seeing something useful as to what is causing the crash,
here's what I got:

Segmentation fault


I also attached gdb and got a backtrace, but it wasn't very interesting
as I don't think there are debug symols loaded.  I've attached that
anyway.

It is possible this is the same bug as described in Bug #212561, as the
behavior is similar, however I was unable to repro the crash using the
site from that bug.
