I think I've finally straightened out this problem. I posted to the Debian users' list about it, and someone (privately) indicated to me that they'd had such a problem, and that it was traceable to a font permissions problem. He had discovered this by using strace. I didn't even know about strace, so I read up about it and also used it to start Mozilla. Sure enough, the browser segfaulted right at a font permissions error. I chmod'ed that font (600 to 644), and afterward accessed the page in question with Mozilla with no segfault/crash. I think I know why the problem exists: I'm still a bit hazy on permissions for various files/dirs, and copied over a bunch of truetype fonts from Windows to Linux. I probably screwed up permissions in so doing.
So, my (hopefully) final question in all this is: what permissions are fonts supposed to have? These are in /usr/share/fonts/truetype. I'd like to just change them all en masse (in case some of them are wrong) to the right permissions. Any tips on doing this?
