Another 12 crashes later, I have managed to write a reduced HTML file
that reproduces the bug. It doesn't even deserve its own attachment,
being a 1-liner.

To reproduce the bug, gedit killer.html and paste the following line:

<div style="border: 1px solid #000; border-left: none; height:
200000px;"></div>

Save, close, and open with Firefox. WARNING: This will probably crash X
for users with proprietary Nvidia drivers and 8xxx series cards (at
least it crashes for me).

Compiz does not appear to make a difference.

All style declarations seem to be necessary (the border color shouldn't
matter, and probably neither should the border size, just its presence).

I didn't pinpoint an exact value for the height yet - I only know that
it's greater than 100k px. I will try to find a more precise value now
(at least for my hardware and/or settings).
