User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.2a1pre) Gecko/20090129 Minefield/3.2a1pre

I've had two crashes in the past two hours in the latest nightly build.  I wasn't doing anything of note at the time - I think in one case, I was trying to type a facebook comment, and had just clicked on the window.  In the other case, I think I had also just clicked on the window.  The related crash IDs are:

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Use latest nightly build
2.  Browser randomly crashes for no apparent reason
3.  There is no 3.
Actual Results:  
Browser randomly crashes.

Expected Results:  
Browser is a paragon of stability.  It is the foundation for centuries of future code.  It takes the remaining market share from IE.  It also makes a good apple pie.

I now have an action confirmed that crashes the browser, and additional crash reports.  Clicking in the search box in the top right corner of a Facebook page causes the browser to crash immediately.

I can confirm that this crashes the browser on both Mac OS X and on Firefox, and works every time now that I know how to duplicate it.

Here are two additional crash reports for the OS X version of Minefield:

This is a crash report from the latest Minefield nightly running on Windows XP:
