2014-05-29 09:43:10.510 firefox-bin[630:507] Mozilla has caught an Obj-C exception [NSInvalidArgumentException: *** -[_NSConcreteUserNotification setUserInfo:]. UserInfo too big. Encoded data greater than 1k.]

Comment 1

[Josh Aas]

This is probably not hard to fix. Assigning to smichaud, but I can take it in a crunch.

Comment 2

I assume the main importance of this bug is that it blocks WebIDL fuzzing tests.

I hope to get to it next week or the week after.

Comment 3

[Jesse Ruderman]

The dependency just means it was found by that fuzzer module. This exception is non-fatal, and I can ignore matching error messages, so fuzzing continues.

Limit is higher in El Capitan, but still possible to hit this.

This is left over from when I was a Mozilla employee. I'll never get back to it.
