Hi Taylor,

Thanks for the extra info.  Do you know if older versions of the
iceweasel package had this problem? Especially 3.5.16-13, if you could
please try it.

(Just in case you don't know this:  you only need the iceweasel,
libmozjs2d, xulrunner binary packages.  If you have any -dbg or -dev
packages already installed for a different version, "apt-get -f install"
will remove them for you.)


It might help to know a specific page that reproduces the problem for
you (and how often?  on every visit?).

It might help to try this one as it gives a good stress test of
JavaScript capabilities (takes a few minutes, browser may hang for a
while, but this is normal) and I know for a fact it works okay for me on
3.5.16-13:

Regards,
Steven,

We actually regressed back to 3.5.16-11 which works just fine. I don't believe we tested -13, but if it hadn't had the issue, then we would've stuck with it instead of falling as far back as we did. As far as pages, I don't know of anything specific, but pretty much any page on LinuxQuestions.org causes the segfault every couple visits.

Regards,
Taylor Burke

PS: Meant to reply-all my last message. Sleepiness is not conducive to work.
