We'll need a stacktrace or crash ID. I suggest you test in Firefox rather than IceCat first. Report it downstream to them if you can't reproduce in Firefox.

"same as bug 512940?"

That does sound like the same bug.

Several other people in Arch Linux are seeing the same bug, who appear to be using regular Firefox.

I am also having the same issue. In my case, when I click on the arrow for choosing the folder where to place the bookmark, firefox crashes. 
Additionally, when saving images or pages, I get the following error, and the save dialog does not show up: 

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.getService]"  nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/contentAreaUtils.js :: getTargetFile :: line 451"  data: no]

Looks like I am having exactly the same issue as in bug 512940

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=512940

I will post on that bug the trace that I was able to get.

Is anybody who is experiencing this crash not using system SQLite?  You can determine this by going to about:buildconfig and looking for "--enable-system-sqlite" under "Configure arguments".

I've got the "--enable-system-sqlite" specification.

Downgrading to sqlite 3.6.16 (from 3.6.17) solved the problem.
