FWIW, this doesn't crash even the renderer in Chrome.  I'm a little surprised there's a difference though.

I like writing these with && instead of ? : like this:

    return frame->page() && frame->page()->settings()->privateBrowsingEnabled();

The failure is a crash on Chromium-Linux. However the stack-trace is not helpful so I will proceed to land the patch updating test_expectations.txt as I think it is unrelated. Filed bug 61326 to cover the crash.
