Steps to reproduce:

This has been observed for a while now, but I've only just considered reporting it as an issue.

When using Firefox in conjunction with Boot Camp on an Apple MacBook Air i7 Mid 2013 running Windows 7 X64, I've observed that if a Private Browsing window is left open whilst the laptop is put to sleep by closing the lid, upon re-opening the lid and logging back into Windows the Private Browsing session has crashed nearly all of the time; I'm prompted to send a crash report (which I haven't yet done). This never happens to the tabs open in a non-Private Browsing window - these are always left open without issue. This is with no custom add-ons or custom extensions installed/activated - also tested with a new profile with the same result. The specifications page for this particular model are below - I know that integrated GPUs can sometimes be the cause of crashes, so wasn't sure if this could be the case here. I should also note that I'm running the NVDA screen reader - I'm not sure if this could contribute to the crashing in any way:
