101751 - TabBrowser - Crash when closing tabs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 101554

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

Build: 2001-09-26-03, Win2k-SP2

1. Go to a page other than your homepage.
2. Press Ctrl+T to open a new tab (which opens your homepage on the new tab).
3. Change to the first tab.
4. Click on the X to close the tabs.

Notice that it (properly) closed the tab you were viewing (the non/homepage
one). Now, if you try to hit the backhistory arrow, it starts to display a menu
but the menu area is very small. At this point, if you try to open a new window
(Ctrl+N) or try going to a website (thru the bookmarks meny) it will crash.
Those are the only two activities I tried, but most likely it will crash when
you do anything to change the current page. Here are my two talkback reports:

TB35909950M
TB35910340Q

In summary, if the "original" tab is the one that is active when you close the
tabs, the browser goes to hell.
