repro steps:
1. start ff3 minefield 2008-april-06
2. open this (probably corrupt) png:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/kernel_history/developer_graph-2.6.22.png
3. crash

When I repro this bug on ubuntu gutsy it prints the following error to the terminal from which I launched ff3:

The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadGC (invalid GC parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 14632 error_code 13 request_code 56 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
Breakpad did NOT trigger. Is that a separate bug maybe or is breakpad windows only?
maybe you don't have the ca-certificates package installed?. See bug 407748 
I tried starting ff3, then attaching gdb to ff3 and then reproing the bug. All I got was this:

(gdb) c
Continuing.
[New Thread -1271010416 (LWP 10605)]
[New Thread -1302750320 (LWP 10606)]

Program exited with code 01.
(gdb) bt
No stack.
(gdb) 

---

Also, it seems sylvain is right about the certificates. This is what I see on my machine:
mnemo@gutsyT5:~$ curl https://crash-reports.mozilla.com/submit
curl: (77) error setting certificate verify locations:
  CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
  CApath: none
I ran "sudo apt-get install ca-certificates" to see if I could get breakpad running but no luck.
Here is the error code being passed into gdk_x_error(), I have no idea how to improve the readability of the backstrace (im not a frequent gdb user).

(gdb) 
gdk_x_error triggers exit() or abort(), we could probably get breakpad to replace and trap it, but that's kinda stupid. we could also try to fix gdk/gtk2/cairo/gecko to handle such errors.

to get useful stacks, you need symbols for glib/gdk/gtk/cairo and a couple of others, you must run w/ --sync as the error indicates, and you should run it under a debugger.

The RC1 version still crashes on the mentioned PNG, and it also crashes on this PNG as well:
http://libpng.org/pub/png/img_png/16million.png
Flags: blocking1.9?
Same disposition as 424333; won't block no it, will get a fix in for a dot release.
Flags: wanted1.9.0.x+
Flags: blocking1.9?
Flags: blocking1.9-
This is still completely broken in FF 3.5.2 although now the gdk_x_error/BadGC is gone and instead the image refuses to paint scaled to fit and refuses to scroll when zoomed to 100%.
Related to bug 166862 and/or bug 210931?
martin: sorry. completely broken is an absolute mischaracterization.

you filed a bug complaining that firefox crashed. bug 424333 fixed that. you no longer crash.

having the image render in any useful manner will require more effort and a new bug.
