to correct my last comment please dont use the repo that says
hardy-proposed as it is not there yet. you will need to install
xulrunner-1.9-dbgsym and firefox-3.0-dbgsym and the normal packages:

libgtk2.0-0-dbg \
     libnss3-0d-dbg \
     libnspr4-0d-dbg \
     libpango1.0-0-dbg \
     libcairo2-dbg \
     libc6-dbg

If they are not there please install thier friends -dbgsym if -dbg isnt
in repos. I will update the wiki as soon as i can its on my list to do
along with the other 39 things :) but i will get to it soon i hope

Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash for more info
about the repos but please use them the way Mozillateam wiki says to as
firefox is run a bit different. can anyone reproduce this crash using
"firefox -safe-mode" running it from a terminal without the "
