Maybe is not relevant, but I've this bug on two out of three machines. the two affected are ~x86 arch while the working one is ~amd64 (all with portage-of-the-day packages installed and the same kernel) the two not working machines uses different video cards, one with nvidia driver, one with radeon (free) ati driver, so I will exclude something related to video drivers.
I'm quite convinced that this behaviour is related to gcc 4.4.1 bug that prevents to build correctly some packages when -O3 optimization is active. in gentoo bugzilla you can find several reports (notably, glib) of packages that crash when compiled with gcc 4.4.1 / -O3 Now I'm compiling all libs and packages used by firefox with -O2 and then will report back, hoping for the best :)
Confirmed. After recompiling fontconfig with -O2 optimization flag, firefox (and OO ) works just fine :)
