I don't think it is valid to close this bug just because it works in 3.2. The stable branch is still 3.0, and I still get the crash on:

Can you submit a breakpad ID please?
I actually do not get any crash dump :(

I'm using a ubuntu-mozilla-daily ppa for Ubuntu 9.10. I think that's
the official Mozilla respositiory. I'm really not sure why it does not
have breakpad enabled.

But, I did attach a call stack above.

because it's not and breakpad is disabled there. http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-1.9.1/ will have breakpad enabled.
Tried the download above. It's a 32-bit binary, which causes some compatibility issues with system libraries. However, it does not crash. Are there 64-bit nightlies with Breakpad?

No.  However, judging from the backtrace that you have included, this is a logic error, not a 64-bit specific error.

You should be able to run a stock 32-bit build on any distro which comes with 32-bit libraries.
The build runs, but has some issues linking to some GNOME libraries. Regardless, the stock build does not crash.

If this is not a 64-bit bug, I think it might be good for the PPA maintainers to look at this. I'm e-mailing this bug ID to one of them, Fabien Tassin.
So, I have a scenario on why the crash is happening.  This is artificial, but I'm fairly positive about most of it.

The crash itself is array bounds checking 101.  It happens here: <http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.9.1/source/editor/libeditor/base/nsEditor.cpp#4916> because aOffset is 0, so segOffset will be -1, and we'll be trying to a access the -1'th array item...

But what causes this to not happen for every case where you try to press ctrl+backspace at the beginning of a text area is this code: <http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.9.1/source/editor/libeditor/text/nsTextEditRules.cpp#945> which in the normal cases should leave the selection as is, and set aCollapsedAction to eNone, which causes the crashing code to never be called.

So, something is probably failing which causes ExtendCharacterForDelete not to be called, which causes the code in question to be called and crash us.

I think this code should be fixed anyways.  It's clearly accessing mmeory in an unsafe way, and it will some day bite us anyway.

That's probably a good choice.  Even though I'm going to attach a patch here, this might just be a bug in their patches which they apply on top of their repository.

Do we have a functioning STR for this bug? From Ehsan's comments, it isn't limited to 64-bit builds, right?

It shouldn't be.  Comment 0 includes a set of STRs, but I never managed to get a crash using them.  If you intend to use those, please make sure that you can get a build without these patches to crash, otherwise the STRs not crashing on the latest builds doesn't mean much.

    
    

    
  
I always verify the crash before I verify a fix, Ehsan. It's just part of best practices.

Of course, if I can't repro the crash, it is more problematic.

Sorry if I sounded to teach the obvious to you.  That wasn't definitely my intention.  :-)

> Of course, if I can't repro the crash, it is more problematic.

Agreed.  I'm afraid I don't have a good answer for this, though... :(

    
    

    
  
My plan for testing this is to wait for the patch to land in the Ubuntu tree that was crashing, and verify that the crash stops. Unfortunately, I have not yet heard anything from the tree maintainer.

Is it true that the fix was checked into the 1.9.1.11 branch as of June 21st or so? If so, I think I should easily be able to verify fixed in 2-3 weeks at most.

    
    

    
  
Is it possible for you to try it on a nightly 1.9.1 build from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-1.9.1/ in the next few days? We're going to code freeze on Friday for the 1.9.1.11 release.

    
    

    
  
or the nightly 1.9.2 builds as well since it is fixed in 1.9.1 and 1.9.2.

I realized that this is Thunderbird specific though.

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-1.9.1/
