Any idea about this, Bill? It's a low volume crash, but failed assertion in AssertWorkerThread sounds bad.

I believe this should be fixed by bug 1283017, which fixes a regression from bug 1274516.

I'm going to mark this fixed. I'm seeing crashes with this signature, still, but I'll file a new bug.
