No, I have not tested the patch.

I'm actually experiencing the problem on Fedora 10 (my main desktop). I use Ubuntu on some computers but not long enough to experience this problem.

I am also concerned that the patch isn't in a final form yet. If I remember correctly, the mailing list contains a few messages suggesting changes to it (although they probably don't have much impact).

Finally, I'm lazy: figuring out how to try the patch will take several hours of my time.

BTW, even though most of my FireFox crashes seem to be this bug, there are other problems. Firefox crashed with a segfault a few days ago.
