runnign for a while)

Keywords: crash
Selected text anywhere -> click a link -> crash. (same backtrace as above)
Using Ctrl+U (another Unix favorite) also creates the same result, without
requiring the actual selection of text. If done someplace other than the URL
bar, in fact, Ctrl+U will crash the browser immediately- in the URL bar it won't
crash until enter is hit.
IMHO, this is a blocker- it makes it difficult to use fields or enter URLs on
Linux, which makes the browser not-quite-but-nearly unusable for most people. 
CC pinkerton since he touched this code as well. Nominate for dogfood.

Settin severity to blocker since this makes mozilla unusable.
