Got it.  I copied the report to: http://iarwain.mortis.org/bad.html and 
sanitized it a bit.

Going there *INSTANTLY* crashes X if I use Mozilla.  Reproducable ALL 
the time.

Going there in Konqueror is fine.

Now, I had an idea.

Logged in.
CTRL-ALT-F1 and log in there as same user.
Set the $DISPLAY to the X server.
Start Mozilla from the text prompt.
Switch to X
Crash X
Switch back to text and look for errors.

...and I got one:

Gdk-ERROR **: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server 
:0.0.

Now... this should be a *result* of the server dying, right?  IIRC, a 
104 error is "can't connect ot X"....

Useless.
