It also crashes Chrome's current tab on OSX: http://imgur.com/vRn6Qid

Weird, not for me. No crash with Chrome 24.0.1312.57 on OSX 10.6.8.

Not for me either with the same version. It doesn't even render, but it doesn't crash.

I'm using 24.0.1312.57 on OSX 10.8.2. Perhaps it is a Lion/Mountain Lion thing.

I'm using Mountain Lion as well, and no crashes.

Windows 7 - Google Chrome 24.0.1312.57m

It's a little laggy, but it's rendering okay. Might be an OSX-localised issue.

Maybe depends upon language settings?

It does for me too. But not the neighbour tabs. Also 24.0.1312.57 on OS X 10.8.2.
