Thanks for the tip.  After updating to 3.6, the crashes appear to have 
stopped, I've been using firefox for over an hour, including flash 
sites, without a crash. However, the waring, 
/usr/local/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libclearlooks.so: ELF file OS ABI 
invalid is still showing in a console.

Looking into that now.
