New description:

 The latest TBB Alpha has a high tendency to crash.

 This is easily reproduced by going to news.bbc.co.uk or torrentfreak.com
 and clicking a link.

 I built a tbb-alpha with and without patches, and the problem does not
 occur without patches.
 I'm currently pinpointing which patch is the culprit.

 This seems to happen for all OSes.

 Without extensions enabled this still occurs.
