Could you have a look in dpkg.log at which packages were upgraded at
that time and downgrade the suspicious ones? They would be:

> ii  libcairo2           1.8.8-2~bpo50+1      The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra
> ii  libglib2.0-0        2.22.4-1~bpo50+1     The GLib library of C routines

> ii  libnspr4-0d         4.8.6-1~bpo50+1      NetScape Portable Runtime Library

My bets go to libnspr, since the xulrunner version in lenny loads a
different version of the library in the same address space.

Cheers,
