Additional notes:
- Ran into this on Ubuntu 14.04 32 bit, using Firefox 28 (build ID: 20140314220517)
- This crash is also reproducible on Firefox 28 using:
       *Windows 8.1 32bit: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/2e478d2d-a812-43b0-98c2-003f42150506
       *Mac OS X 10.9.5: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/0267a360-4a71-440e-91c7-161da2150506
The first affected version is Firefox 23 (build ID: 20130730113002)
  - Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/9ca7b041-84e2-47d2-8471-9bf4f2150506
  - Windows 8.1 32bit: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/fe0bbd44-896b-4340-aaaa-1ffdf2150506
  - Mac OS X 10.9.5: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/599bfd64-1dd1-4d13-ab09-ee8ad2150506

- I also encountered this issue on Firefox 24.
- This crash is reproducible only for Adblock Plus add-on.
I can't reproduce this on Firefox 28 on OSX. This crash looks like the crash that was happening before bug 1158938 was fixed. Did you try clearing your cache first? Maybe adblock plus only recently got resigned on dev with the new code or something.
adblock-plus was one of the early add-ons we signed on -dev. I've unsigned and resigned it on -dev just to make sure we are signing with the fixes in bug 1158938. You could also try out https://addons.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ (stage instance).
I have tested again today and I was unable to reproduce the crashes. Adblock Plus add-on was successfully installed. 

Verified on Firefox 23, Firefox 24 and Firefox 28 using Windows 8.1 32-bit, Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit and Mac OS X 10.9.5.
Crash Signature: [@ nsJAR::ReadLine(char const**)] → [@ nsJAR::ReadLine(char const**)] [@ nsJAR::ReadLine]
Considering there are none of these reports in crash-stats that I can see, and 28 is aaaaancient now, and per comment #4, going to close this as WFM.
