After some investigation made on Russian Ubuntu Community Forum (
http://forum.ubuntu.ru/index.php?topic=53913.0;all ) statistics are: Situation
occurs in both 8.10 and 9.04 beta, on 32 and 64 bit systems, roughly on 75% of
users' machines when using gnome and xfce.
Steps to reproduce:
Open Firefox, go to http://blog.oup.com/2009/03/science-fiction/ and watch the
panel die, try alt+tab until focus on browser window, metacity will crash too.
This web page contains some symbols in it's title between "Fiction" and ":"
When this title transfers to firefox window title, crash happens.
Two title code variants contained in attached file and also in this message:

first is with symbols between "Fiction" and ":", second is without. This code
pieces can be used to reproduce bug in case of changes in original web-page
