I'm getting this message too and firefox does not crash. The crash has
to be something else. Please build firefox with DEBUG, load the core
file in gdb and show us the output.
Just read the thread on the forums, did you rebuild firefox after
upgrading from 9.0 to 9.1? If you didn't please do, there were problems
in 9.0 that could explain this.

Yes, FireFox was rebuilt after upgrade to FreeBSD v9.1; however, not
sure about DEBUG. I will check and rebuild if necessary (of course,
this will take some time). In the mean time, could the fact that my
processors are Pentium III's as per the following? (I know Mozilla FF
recommends minimum Pentium IV.)
The equipment is a Compaq ProLiant ML370 G1 with 4GB RAM

Hello Florian and others:
Over the past forty-eight hours, I have deinstalled and attempted to
remake FireFox v24.0,1. I only specified DBUS, DBUG, GSTREAMER and
ALSA (audio) via make configure. The process ran for almost 18 hours
but failed. I can reproduce the results (failing at the same
operation) and unfortunately, the make build fails with the following
complaint: (excerpt from the attached make-build.out.gz)
("../../media/webrtc/signaling/signaling_sipcc/src/sipcc/cpr/darwin/
cpr_darwin_timers_using_select.o")
../../media/webrtc/signaling/signaling_ecc/src/peerconnection/PeerCo
nnectionCtx.o: file not recognized: File format not recognized
clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to
see invocation)
gmake[3]: *** [libxul.so] Error 1

gmake[2]: *** [libs_tier_platform] Error 2

gmake: *** [default] Error 2
*** [do-build] Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/www/firefox.
*** [build] Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/www/firefox.
Per the diagnostic message, "clang++: error: linker command failed with
exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)",
I have attempted to compile # clang++ -v PeerConnectionCtx.o and the
results of that attempt are attached in the clang.out.gz file. I am at
a loss to understand why this is now failing, because as previously
mentioned, the make build install processes previously completed
successfully and allowed FireFox to start and dump.
My Ports are/should be up to date. Unfortunately . . .obviously, I
cannot produce a core dump as you requested regarding the segfault
without a compiled and linked system.
Thanks again, your suggestions will be most appreciated.

Ron W.
