In the latest hourly extensions don't start up.
Regression between 1.9a1_2006081706 and 1.9a1_2006081709:

Severity: normal → major
workaround (weird)

1. Open Addons manager
2. select an extension
3. select uninstall
4. close Firefox
5. open Firefox and be happy, suddenly all extensions work again, including the one you tried to uninstall
Benjamin, do you know what is going on here? gAppData->flags is always 0 on startup so the EM is never called as well as migration.
ScopedAppData::ScopedAppData doesn't set or zero out flags so NS_XRE_ENABLE_PROFILE_MIGRATOR | NS_XRE_ENABLE_EXTENSION_MANAGER is never set.
