[Description Martin Heusel 2013-01-25 12:45:19 UTC]

Since Chromium 24 (also Chromium 25) libv8.so segfaults very often, mostly on facebook. 'Aw snap!' message from Chromium appears and in dmesg

[246857.520675] chrome[14038]: segfault at 500000000 ip 00007fd5fa0f3eac sp 00007fff3e240b70 error 4 in libv8.so.3.14.5[7fd5f9f36000+43c000]

or

[224701.456197] chrome[4191]: segfault at 500000000 ip 00007f358eaa4e7c sp 00007ffffc50ff90 error 4 in libv8.so.3.15.11[7f358e8dd000+45a000]

depending which Chromium (v8) is installed.
