Can you reproduce it with Nightly?

A stack trace can be generated with gdb (I have an instructional video made by Joe Drew, but don't know where it is from).

Do you also reproduce this issue with a clean profile: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles ?

I think the video is https://vreplay.mozilla.com/replay/showRecordingExternal.html?key=uVIzOPlbqJAT7tu 

but I doubt ill is able to go through the complexities of building firefox.

Regardless, ill doesn't reply in the bug so => incomplete
