The stack traces are not very useful, but they all point to this NS_RUNTIMEABORT():

Nightly 22 build 2013-03-28 seems to be the earliest appearance of these "We need a context on Android" gfx aborts.
There have been many causes of this crash; bug 844275 was supposed to fix most/all of them. Without STR it's going to be hard to debug this; even a stack won't help much since the bad behaviour happens in previous function calls.
