The GTK 3.20 patch is to blame. Plugincontainer crashes because of missing symbols. Same applies to fedora, they fixed their gtk 3.20 patch for this.

Could be fixed with libcanberra 0.30-6, please test.

Do you have any stack traces in the journal?

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/47299 is probably related, as this crash would trigger that effect (spam in coredump). Still an issue with latest [testing] update. My coredump is exactly the same as that of Vito.

New profile doesn't trigger, and browsing Arch's forums/bugtracker doesn't trigger. Gmail does (for me).

No, that's unrelated, whatever it is.
Please try firefox 45.0.1-4.
Comment by Ng Oon-Ee (ngoonee) - Monday, 04 April 2016, 02:09 GMT
45.0.1-4 fixes it for me (gmail now loads properly without triggering spam in coredump).
