Something was wrong with the retrace as it ends with "Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)"

Myriam, can you reproduce the crash? If so, describe the setps so we can cause it ourselves. I've also noticed that you are using some extensions that aren't the ones ubuntu provides (ie /usr/share/RealPlayer/mozilla/nphelix.so instead of package mozilla-helix-player). Maybe you could try to see if the crash happens disabling those extensions.

Tagging as mt-confirm for further processing

We are going to close this bug report because it looks that it was caused by adobe's flashplugin-nonfree which we can do anything about it, since it is closed source. You might want to report it upstream directly.
