1334257 - Crash in mozilla::TIPMessageHandler::SendMessageTimeoutWHook

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[[:philipp]]

This bug was filed from the Socorro interface and is 
report bp-52fabcd9-25d0-4529-a508-c85422170126.
=============================================================

this seems to be a regression in firefox 52 in a codepath that was added in bug 1329616. so far it's rather low level while it was on aurora and there isn't much data from 52.0b yet...

Oddly enough this looks kind of like the SendMessageTimeoutW hook was applied twice, thus causing SendMessageTimeoutWStub to point to SendMessageTimeoutWHook.

I suppose this could happen if all nsWindow objects were destroyed and then another one was subsequently created. This is probably a rare occurrence but not impossible.

Given the current state of e10s+a11y, I'm not sure where if anywhere this needs backporting to. But please request it where needed :)
