3.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla crashes

Stack is worthloss here, only contains 
libgklayout.dylib + 0x950d0 (0x0209d0d0)
or
libgklayout.dylib + 0x950c8 (0x0209d0c8)
Same thing hapens on Linux, but it happens consistently at least at this form
site. https://secure.cartlight.com/merchant/keyes/donation.php?afid=conpet

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040903 MultiZilla/1.6.4.0b

Happens whether MultiZilla is installed or not.
Tried to use form manager to fill in a form in the Mozilla Debug -> Form Manager
Samples. Did this to see if it might b form site specific. If it fails the
Mozilla built in Debug (noticed there are other failures in the Debug tests too).
Mozilla crashed on the first sample I tried in Form Manager Samples.

bz, dbaron. Looks like this is a crash in ProcessRestyle(), I'll attach a stack
trace (sorry, optimized build).
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
Keywords: crash
Patches will be coming up in bug 257694, hopefully.
Depends on: 256242
Since this is occuring in PC/Linux and not just the Mac OS, suggest the hardware
be changed to All and the OS also be changed to All.
Flags: blocking1.8a4?
As per comment #2 and comment #8, setting Hardware=All and OS=All.
OS: MacOS X → All
Hardware: Macintosh → All
I just checked in some fixes that would help fix crashes of this type.  Could
someone who can reproduce this crash please retest in tomorrow's builds?
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040913 MultiZilla/1.6.4.0b

Fixed for me.
Almost certainly fixed by the patch in bug 257818
