In case it's useful, I have what I suspect is a related crashing problem, with a very reproducible testcase:

Using Firefox 2.0.0.3, stock package from Ubuntu Edgy, with only the following add-on:

  RikaiChan 1.00 (from http://www.polarcloud.com/rikaichan/) and the Japanese-English dictionary for it.

Also using SCIM with Anthy for Japanese language input using a US keyboard.

1. Start up Firefox
2. Switch input method to Anthy
3. Go to the Tools menu, and select "Add-ons"

Firefox will crash every time. It will not crash if the input method is "English/Keyboard", only if it is set to "Anthy". Note that it is not necessary to type anything for it to crash, if the menu option is selected (even by mouse) simply while Anthy is active, it will crash immediately.

An alternate method is also to do the following:

1. Start up Firefox
2. Press Alt-Delete to bring up the RikaiChan LookupBar
3. Switch input method to Anthy
4. Click on the "settings" (gear) icon in the RikaiChan bar

(Firefox will crash)
