        <pre>I don't have the technical expertise to report this properly, but my own
experience (after upgrading mesa to 17.3.1) and the crashes reported by other
users of Firefox, it seems that 17.3.1 has introduced a bug that occasionally
will cause Firefox to crash on i965 hardware:

Just a wild guess, but maybe it's related to this change?
