(In reply to Tobias Kortkamp from comment #21)

So the crashes I had were a known problem [1].  It happens on some
esoteric WMs (in my case cwm) when you double-click in the empty space
next to the tab bar.  Apparently I sometimes accidentally do this.

Applying the fix [2,3] to the port solves the problem for me.  IIUC it
won't be part of Firefox 57.  Any chance that we can include it on
FreeBSD anyway?  I think there might be a disproportionate amount of
FreeBSD users that use alternative WMs when compared to Linux...
But maybe that is my own bias talking :-)
