It is almost-certainly not fixed upstream, because firefox tends to
use ancient versions of many of the libraries it ships.  For me, the
workaround has been doing its job.  Yesterday, on 7.8, firefox
crashed twice.  Today, I looked at about:config and realised that
the workaround had not been in place (new build).

At the moment, I'm on my second attempt at hacking the preferences -
your suggestion seemed a bit complex to me, and I loathe letting
applications ship their own versions of system libraries : I might
think again about that after 7.8.  Seems to work.
