gstreamer-vaapi crashes my firefox

Hello,

I suffer from this bug
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40807

It has been closed with "Reason for closing:  Fixed", but I continue to encounter this issue.

When loading the vaapi driver, firefox crashes :

libva info: VA-API version 0.37.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_37
Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[2619] ###!!! ABORT: Divide by zero: file /build/firefox/src/mozilla-release/toolkit/xre/nsSigHandlers.cpp, line 154

The workaround is to uninstall gstreamer-vaapi, so the html5 video acceleration is disabled.
Is it an upstream bug ? I don't find it.
