dump_syms crashes during the build when creating the breakpad symbols with gcc 4.7. It isn't recreatable at all on a local build, which is a bit of a pain.

Unfortunately, valgrind is not much help by default because dump_syms is statically linked (so memcheck can't hook in to malloc / free). However, I can do a dynamic build in a PPA and get that build to crash locally. In this case, I see this in valgrind:

I wonder if this is actually a STL issue
This bug was fixed in the package firefox - 13.0~b4+
---------------
firefox (13.0~b4+
* Shuffle the order of google-
variable substitution issue, which was causing some objects to be built with
the wrong compiler flags, resulting in dump_syms crashing (LP: #1002590)
- add debian/
* Build with --disable-methodjit on armel in quantal
- update debian/
* Turn crash reporter back on again
- update debian/
