Mike:

Here are a couple of questions that might help troubleshoot:
What is the url of the site that is causing the crash?
Can you get in helpful data from strace mozilla?
You mentioned that you tried the java rpm's from Dag's site -- did you 
also install the mozilla-j2re-1.4.2-9.1.fc2.dag.i586.rpm plugin from Dag?
