Bug#856102: firefox-esr: clicking on some links crashes xorg

Package: firefox-esr
Version: 45.7.0esr-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Clicking on some links while using firefox-esr causes X to crash and desktop
session to abruptly end. Clicking the "download patch" link here, for example,
reproduces the problem: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/135036/ (the
patch supposedly remedies the issue... gotta love the irony). Clicking that
same link in Chromium does not cause a crash. Icedove has a similar issue,
where X crashes sometimes immediately after I press the "Send" button.

My package versions:
firefox-esr 45.7.0esr-4
icedove 1:45.6.0-2
xorg 1:7.7+18

Whether the crash is caused by firefox-esr or icedove, the text console that
shows up after X crashes shows this message: "glamor_picture.c:291:
glamor_upload_picture_to_texture: Assertion
`!pixmap_priv->fbo' failed. xinit: connection to x server lost".

I'm not sure if this is an issue with mozilla applications or with xorg, so I
also submitted a bug report to Debian's X team (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=856041). A more experienced debian user suggested that I
submit the report to both X and mozilla folk, so I obliged.
