Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

This is Ubuntu 8.10.  I've seen this crash on Firefox 3.0.3 and 3.0.4.

I have a "master password" configured to protect my saved passwords in
Firefox (Edit->Preferences->Security).

When I launch Firefox and go to a site that requires a password, one of
two things happens:

 - The master password prompt is displayed, I put in the master password, and 
then Firefox is "unlocked" and works fine for the rest of the session.
 - Firefox window vanishes (browser has crashed).  This happens before the 
master password prompt is displayed, but only when I navigate to a page that 
would produce it.

The crash happens about 25% of the time.

I launched Firefox from the terminal and reproduced the crash, and I saw
that is is a "Segmentation fault."

Backtrace to follow as soon as I can produce one.
