Hi Herminio,
If you want to backtrace Firefox, then you need the debug version of
Firefox. Please add the following repositories to your
/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/ unstable-debug main
deb http://debug.mirrors.debian.org/debian-debug/ experimental-debug main
You have to install the Firefox package with dbgsym attached:
apt-get install -t experimental firefox-dbgsym
Many thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Christian

This backtrace is not usable, it doesn't contains any symbols:
Thread 1 "firefox.real" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x1ae2ddf8 in ?? () from /usr/lib/firefox/libxul.so
(gdb) bt
#0 0x1ae2ddf8 in ?? () from /usr/lib/firefox/libxul.so
#1 0x1ae2eed4 in ?? () from /usr/lib/firefox/libxul.so
#2 0x20017584 in ?? ()
(...)
The "??" indicates you don't have debug symbols installed.
