and with iceweasel 6.0-4, but this time, this wasn't on Facebook, but
on a GLPI system[*] when entering a bug report. I don't know which
word caused the problem, but there was at least a word starting with
"E" (Error).

What I did is the following:
_ Enter my bug report. The English / US dictionary was active.
_ I switched to the français «Moderne» dictionary.

Iceweasel immediately crashed.

In all the crashes (on Facebook, Wikipedia and GLPI), the dictionary
was français «Moderne» and there was a (non-French) word starting
with "E" (possibly E alone, as on Facebook, the crash could occur
just after typing E).
