The next logical step would be to somehow inform users so they could take action to replace the bad memory. I realize this is a challenge given the anonymized nature of the crash data, but I might be willing to trade some anonymity in exchange for stability.

The easy solution for that is to just do that analysis locally... Firefox doesn't submit the full core dumps anyhow for this exact reason and therefore needs to do some preprocessing in any case.

This isn't really feasible: have you looked at memory prices lately? The users can't afford to replace bad memory now.
