Gregor, can you take a look? Any idea?
This might be an old bug. I see crashes in js_NewGCString even in 3.6 releases. But they seem to be more frequent now and windows related. I will see if I can get access to a windows machine.

this happened for me while using the buildbot web interface actively and a bunch of background tabs. I dont think that the buildbot web interface actually uses javascript, so i doubt it was content. http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/5f72f79e-0ccb-44f6-a935-707c52101026
I hit this yesterday. IIRC, I wasn't actively using the browser at the time, but it's clearly executing JS, so it might have been gmail or zimbra. http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-0838fe44-de92-448b-accc-1365e2101026

This became much less common in builds on/after 10/29. Most of them in recent days were probably from background-threading-related causes. I'll keep watching to see if it stays low over the next week.
