Clint,

Yes, I had the a similar problem and it turned out to be a font problem 
described here:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109537

Do an "strace mozilla" and take a look at the log when it crashes.

If you are experiencing the same problem, I resolved it by following the 
suggestions in that discussion to remove the font-cache-1 files and 
rebuild them again.
