mpiled packeges with pkg update/upgrade) I experience rather large number o=
f Firefox crashes. Sometimes it crashes without opening any pages (I just s=
tarted and left firefox for a few minutes, it crashes with the same error:=
=20

A coding exception was thrown and uncaught in a Task.

Full message: TypeError: malformed UTF-8 charachter sequence at offset 0
etc. )=20


Version numbers:

FreeBSD-12-0-CURRENT #318917; firefox-53.0.3,1

best regards
