The attached testcase causes a null-deref in m-c rev 67cd1ee26f26.

So I took a look at this, and it's kinda nasty... So the column set frame is removing its next in flows.

Why we mutate the frame tree when we're doing reflow will remain a mistery to me, I guess...

Of course removing frames shouldn't affect the shape of the DOM, but it does (since we hold pseudo-elements off the container frame, which is kinda nasty on its own and I'd like to change).

Anyway, so we have a pseudo-frame which happens to be a ::after pseudo, and its parent is obviously null, because the container frame has been destroyed already, and deleting it's GenConPseudoProperty() unbinds the pseudo-content.

Since we have a null parent, we crash.

Short-term fix is probably adding a null-check. But there's some really messy stuff here. I wonder if we could stop mutating the frame tree from reflow...
Mutating frame tree during reflow is very normal, because we can only know whether and where should we split a frame and create continuation only during reflow in many cases.

In general, when before a continuation is removed, its previous continuation should pull all of the children into its own child list, and we should reparent them at that time.
This testcase crashes with or without Stylo enabled. Adding a meta refresh to the testcase can make it reproduce more reliably.

Adjusting the test to use -moz-columns, I get the regression range below:
INFO: Last good revision: 946ed22cad04431c75ab5093989dfedf1bae5a3e (2016-03-12)

Which I assume is pointing at bug 1144096 as the culprit.

Attached file Testcase #2
The crash doesn't seem Grid-related per se.  Here's a slightly modified
version of the first test that crashes in a similar way but without
using display:grid.  It's more related to display:contents and I think
the first assertion indicates where it goes wrong:
ASSERTION: property should only be set on first continuation/ib-sibling: 'nsLayoutUtils::IsFirstContinuationOrIBSplitSibling(aOwnerFrame)', file layout/base/nsCSSFrameConstructor.cpp, line 6290

(Simply forcing |aOwnerFrame| to be the first continuation there seems
to fix the crash, fwiw.)

Attached patch fixSplinter Review
This should fix it for now.  (I agree with your code comment though --
perhaps that's something we can do as part of bug 1400618?)

This patch also fixes bug 1251800, bug 1145931 and bug 1350372.

Oh, please do add the crashtest(s) though.
Right, will do.
