This, together with the subject, is a bit like trying to speak English in
the UK, US, Canada, Australia and Spain, and concluding that there must be
something wrong with Spain since that is the only place where they don't
understand you.

Firefox simply crashed, for a reason that cannot be told from the
information you provided. Stick to released versions or at least clean up
your Firefox installation, and if that doesn't help, treat it like any
other Firefox crash.

Again, it only fails in KDE 4.4. and it seems to make no difference if
its FF 3.5, 3.6, 3.7. I realize their may be a conflict between
MozillaFirefox-branding- upstream-3.6.0-1.2 and
MozillaFirefox-3.5.7-1.1.1 - YaST suggested this and did not complain
during installation.

Looking at the horrendous package list I have a theory... as part of the
new KDE4/Firefox integration in 11.2, when Firefox loads on KDE4, it
runs an app called kmozillahelper that is in the package
mozilla-xulrunner191-kde4 - built against xulrunner191, obviously. I bet
your Firefox is loading with xulrunner192 and therein lies the
incompatibility.

That is unlikely, unless xulrunner192 introduced a change that breaks the
KDE integration support. That is still a problem that needs to be fixed in
Firefox, either in xulrunner192 or in the KDE integration code.

More or less homogenous Moz packages as far as I can tell so far.
