O.K. I have no clue about bactraces and such.  Here is, what I
did to produce a bactrace:

 1. purged mozilla-browser and mozilla-firefox
    pit:/usr/lib# aptitude purge mozilla-browser mozilla-firefox

 2. then installed mozilla-firefox
    http_proxy= ftp_proxy= sudo aptitude install mozilla-firefox
 
 3. started /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin several times and got
    error messages regarding missing shared libraries
 
 4. did
    pit:/usr/lib# ln -s firefox/libmozjs.so libmozjs.so
    pit:/usr/lib# ln -s firefox/libxpcom.so libxpcom.so
    pit:/usr/lib# ln -s firefox/libxpcom_core.so libxpcom_core.so
    pit:/usr/lib# ln -s firefox/libxpcom_compat.so libxpcom_compat.so
    pit:/usr/lib# 
 
 5. started /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin, got error message 
    "/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: symbol lookup error:
    /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: undefined symbol:
    PR_GetPhysicalMemorySize"
 
 6. did a
    pit:/usr/lib# rm -f libmozjs.so libxpcom.so libxpcom_core.so 
libxpcom_compat.so
  
 7. installed mozilla-browser  (1.7.12-1.1) 
 
 8. started /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin, got error message
    "/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin: error while loading shared
    libraries: libxpcom_core.so: cannot open shared object file:
    No such file or directory"

 9. did a 
    pit:/usr/lib# ln -s firefox/libxpcom_core.so libxpcom_core.so

10. run 
    pit:/tmp/fir$ /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin
    got segfault


--> I think mozilla-firefox depends on libraries (libmozjs.so
libxpcom.so libxpcom_compat.so) provided by mozilla-browser but
does not depend on it?


11. run 
    pit:/tmp/fir$ dgb /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin:
    (gdb) run
