I haven't tried any other versions of Firefox...

It might be cookie related - I'm prompted about accepting a cookie (and can see
the page render), but once I reject the cookie it crashes.

(Do you get the JS popup "else happened" or whatever?)

WFM, with current trunk build.
Please, test again with a nightly trunk build:
