0x40f9bdfc in nsTextFrame::TextStyle::TextStyle ()
   from /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.3/components/libgklayout.so

that's bug 180309 (.fon font) or one of its companions (unreadable font, corrupt
font config)

[Nickolay_Ponomarev]

the other person who experienced this bug gave me a few talkback ids
(tb2747425k, tb2747476W, tb2747499y) and they have stack trace similar to bug
180309.

Also see bug 180309 comment 65, which says nsTextFrame::TextStyle::TextStyle is
the same bug probably. bug 180309 is said to be fixed in 1.7.5.

Reporter, please try Mozilla 1.7.5 and reopen this if it doesn't work for you
(but see bug 180309 comment 100+ first)
