Dear Jonathan, I attached to this message a minimalistic failure test case. You should be able to reproduce the failure with the following recipe
$ LANG=C chromium-browser test.html # select 'inspect element' from right-click menu # select 'Scripts' # select 'test.html' # put a breakpoint on line 7 (by clicking on it) # push reload button # I get the 'Aw, Snap!' page with the generic error message # Segfault info is available in the system logs $ dmesg .... [15594.289025] chromium-browse[31390]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f700fe69b00 sp 00007fff69b9fc00 error 4 in libv8.so.2.2.18[7f700fd0d000+2ab000] .... Is this enough to isolate properly the problem? Thank you!
