Daily + Lightning 20140920 on Windows 8.1

With javascript.options.showInConsole set to true, launching Thunderbird with Lightning installed throws:

Error: TypeError: tab is undefined
Source File: chrome://messenger/content/tabmail.xml
Line: 1067

Relevant code:
      <!-- getBrowserForSelectedTab is required as some toolkit functions
           require a getBrowser() function. -->
      <method name="getBrowserForSelectedTab">
        <body><![CDATA[
          if (!this.currentTabInfo)
            this.currentTabInfo = this.tabInfo[0];

          let tab = this.currentTabInfo;

          let browserFunc = tab.mode.getBrowser || tab.mode.tabType.getBrowser;


The code called there references this.tabInfo[0], but debugging it shows that this gets initialized later (in openFirstTab).

So code can't rely on tabmail code being ready. Either we should fix that or show a best practice how to avoid the issue.
This still happens and can be consistently seen in mozmill runs on TB-trunk as that has Lightning installed.
