Thanks for your report; your description of what you did helped me to reproduce it myself, which was very valuable. I'm going to treat this as a duplicate of bug 54163, which I'll soon have fixed in Edgy. As you indicated, I believe that the workaround is to avoid hitting the back and/or next buttons more than once in quick succession.
