I'm also getting a lot of silent Firefox 3.0.3 SIGABRTs on Intrepid (32-bit desktop). The link of death doesn't work for me, though. I use the NoScript plugin so nothing Flash will load, but I can "temporarily allow all this page" (thus reloading the page) and no crash. Perhaps reloading doesn't trigger the crash condition?
My video driver is (according to "Hardware Drivers", anyway): ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver.
My GDB backtrace looks a lot like Stephen's:
