The fd.o bug is for bug 263160, which is unrelated to this bug, but that report contains a number of comments about this bug.

This bug is a bug in Gecko. Gecko is creating a cairo xlib surface wrapper around a Window, but destroying the Window before destroying the wrapper.

Evidence suggests that the crash has been triggered (or at least made more likely) by a change in cairo. However, even if we back out that change in our cairo, this bug will resurface when distros update their cairos.

Mozilla 1.9.2 uses a cairo based on b71b019fe50a9188ddbecd1945606da8ba3bad53

http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-1.9.2/file/61e9a14a8819/gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-features.h.in
claims this is 1.7.4 but that must be wrong.
