Can you attach a crash report? Does this happen in 6.0?

This bug can not be reproduced on Firefox version 6.0 due to nonexistent feature on this version (long tap on top sites does not show a contextual menu, so no open in new tab option). Opening a link in a new tab does not crash the app(in either version)

I've tried this and I can't reproduce it; I think this is already fixed due to some favicon refactoring (according to Farhan). Please reopen if it's reproducible still!
