Public bug reported:

After updating my Ubuntu 12.04 in Sep 24, 2012 (getting Firefox 15.0.1
and firefox-globalmenu 15.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) my Firefox keeps
crashing when I press Alt+Tab (to go either to another application
window or to another firefox window).  It did not ocurried just after
the update (which required me to restart the notebook); actually, it
just started to happen some time after this and before it I could
alternate between windows without problem.

It is not even possible to just disable the Ubuntu extras plugin - I had
to uninstanll it using Synaptic. After that, my firefox stopped
crashing.

I attached the output of the `bt` command in gdb.
