(Whiteboard: [xbl1.0] critical for 0.8)

on my build (2001020121 linux .tar.gz Mtrunk), the list of autocomplete' URLs under location bar is broken, i.e. i'm seeing only small 2x2 pixel box. in console, i get: ************************************************************ * Call to xpconnect wrapped JSObject produced this error: * [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIPopupSetBoxObject.activeChild]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/xulBindings.xml#popups.activeChild (setter) :: onset :: line 6" data: no] ************************************************************ not sure what component it is, assuming XPConnect from error message... it is recent regression, my previous 28 Jan build was ok. how to reproduce: start to type in location bar something like 'www.m' Expected results: the list of possible visited URLs should popup (www.mozilla.org, www.mozillazine.org in my case) Actual results: no list, just a small 2x2 pixel box.
confirming. Also see bug 67450

Confirming for real.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
lowering severity to normal: autocomplete as such works - it's only the dropdown box one selects from that is empty. Go on typing, and next match is filled out - go on typing yet again, and new matches keep autofilling. (Actually this works very well..i like it)
Severity: major → normal

This bug is not limited to autocomplete popups - I'm seeing the same problem occur with the popups associated with menulists. For an example, fire up composer, and go to Insert > Table. Click on the menulist that says % of Window and you'll see an empty menulist. There are several other popups around the app that exhibit this same behavior. In all cases, the exception that kmike posted below shows up in the console, so this is obviously specific to popups, not just autocomplete.
hyatt, this is the bug that I mentioned. XBL changes or something unrelated?

Summary: broken list of URLs for autocomplete → popups coming up empty all over the place
the attachments popup that comes up when clicking on the attachment icon in the message pane isn't showing either.
