I have also reproduced this bug using mozilla alone (with xft support).

Please provide a stack trace

Don't see it here, but I'm running a tip build.

I'm running the _rh8_xft rpms. What's the best way to get a stack trace?

Attach gdb to the mozilla-bin process and wait for the crash. Do you know how to use gdb?

Ok, I thought I did :) Obviously it's just been too long. I attached gdb to a running process and when it crashed I just got: Program exited with code 01. I ran mozilla-bin with gdb which gave a bit more output. I got: This GDB was configured as "i386-redhat-linux"... (no debugging symbols found)...

do you have microsoft fonts .fon in your font directories ? See bug 180309. Can you load the "render" extension via XFree86 (if available on your video card) and does it help (not crashing) ?
