can you get some details on the nature of crashes? any logs perhaps? if softmode fixes it then it's probably MPROTECT related, did you already disable it on the binary?

MPROTECT is actually already disabled:
# paxctl -v /opt/google/chrome/chrome PaX control v0.7 Copyright 2004,2005,2006,2007,2009,2010,2011,2012 PaX Team <pageexec@freemail.hu> - PaX flags: -----m-x-e-- [/opt/google/chrome/chrome] MPROTECT is disabled RANDEXEC is disabled EMUTRAMP is disabled
Here's the segfault from dmesg:

ok, in that case can you report this

to the chrome folks? i'm pretty sure that 'bbadbeef' is a magic constant somewhere in their userland memory management code and signifies some corruption (use-after-free perhaps?) and they'd probably like to know how to reproduce this.

OK, so no Gentoo bug, just a chromium bug?
