Description
I recently updated my machine to Fedora 33 and I'm seeing a bunch of these assertions when recording / replaying Firefox.
The rr tests are enough to trigger this fairly frequently.

Research direction
Reproduce the assertions with the rr tests using ctest -VV -j$(nproc) and review the linked verbose log. Trace the reported assertion through the affected rr code and determine the Fedora 33-specific failure; done means the tests no longer trigger the assertion during recording or replay.
