Tried this build as well.  Deleted all the cache, the profile, etc.  Seems a bit more stable, but still crashes with bus error.

Colors are correct on vnc, however, i can confirm the blue tint over ssh forward.

And if you don't want to wait that long, just download the package here:

> http://incoming.ports.debian.org/firefox_50.0.2-1.1_sparc64.deb

As root:

$ wget http://incoming.ports.debian.org/firefox_50.0.2-1.1_sparc64.deb
$ dpkg -i firefox_50.0.2-1.1_sparc64.deb
