> I need to figure out how to make dtrace only show output when these methods fail.

Turns out this wasn't hard.

Sorin, here's a dtrace script for you to try. Run it as follows from a Terminal prompt, and keep it running until you experience at least one crash. Please test with a mozilla-central nightly (since they don't have their symbols stripped).

        sudo dtrace -s bugzilla1576767.d

Let us know what output you get. Also let me know if you get any output without crashing. If you get a lot of that, just comment out the relevant section and try again. See the existing examples of commented out sections.

This script is probably the best I can do for now. I may be able to improve it after seeing your results.

You can quit the script by typing Contol-C.
