[Bug 1099113] [NEW] Browsers hang after a few minutes max

[Hervé Fache]

Public bug reported:

Both Firefox and Chromium started hanging after upgrading to Raring. It
quickly became clear that Firefox was getting stuck ona call to
futex(..., FUTEX_WAIT_REQUEUE_PI_PRIVATE, ...) thanks to strace. I have
now installed firefox:i386 as a test and am currently using it without
issues...
