Too late for 45 and the crash is not too important (and was also impacting 44.0.2)

Comment 5

[Johnny Stenback (:jst)]

Did the back out of bug 1222624 not fix this?

Comment 6

[Jim Mathies [:jimm]]

Is this still reproducible on nightly?

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/guiconfig/versions/
1.9.1 seems fixed the issue.
