I looked into your first link, the linked google issues says:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: android.support.v7.internal.view.menu.MenuBuilder at android.support.v7.widget.ActionMenuView.getMenu(SourceFile:620) at android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar.ensureMenu(SourceFile:823) ...

Is this really a "firmware issue"? I thought the inclusion of support libraries was the responsibility of the developers? Am I misreading this?

Samsung includes their own modified support library on the classpath, on some of their handsets, before the classes loaded from the APK.

So on those devices you need to load a customised versions to be able to workaround class loading priorities and load the right classes.
