Comment (by gk):

 I flipped the preference and Tor Browser was still crashing. Apart from
 that, instead of messing with our keywords providing a workaround patch
 (be sure that you disable favicons only for Windows), setting the ticket
 to `needs_review` and linking, ideally, to test builds would be a much
 better approach. Above all it would show that you are really caring about
 this topic.
