So far, this evidence points to a bug in Mozilla rather than in Wine.  It
may very well be triggered by a bug in Wine..

Mozilla's passing an apparently invalid pointer to WideCharToMultiByte. 
Question is, where does this come from?

Running with WINEDEBUG=nls may give a clue what string it's trying to
convert, which may give some indication of the problem.  Running with
WINEDEBUG=relay will probably give a better clue, but be prepared for a
huge log.  But since the Mozilla source is available, you may be able to
hunt it down more easily using that.
