 It's a shell script indeed, add "set -x" at the beginning and find the
 command that segfaults, then run it from gdb.  You might want to "set
 args" in gdb to pass parameters.

 Ok, please try with the latest version from unstable, ie 2:1.7.12.  You
 should be able to install it manually from unstable.

 You just need the mozilla packages from unstable, but you can also wait
 some days, until they reach testing.

 You don't need to have a backtrace against 1.7.8, that wouldn't get
 fixed, only the latest upstream matters here.
