Comment 1

[Wes Kocher (:KWierso) (Not reading bugmail; email directly if needed)]

Hrm, found an instance of this on autoland prior to bug 1321026 landing at all on inbound, so I guess that theory's out...

Comment 2

[Marco Bonardo [:mak] (Away Apr 25 - May 5)]

This is likely due to bug 1344616 instead.

From the failure, looks like something is trying to initialize Places DURING shutdown.
That may indicate either that the test or the custom harness is doing something wrong on shutdown, or using profile features like places without creating a profile and firing all the expected profile notifications.
On the other side, I don't see why this xpcshell-test should startup Places at all.

Kris, any idea of what's up here? I don't know what these tests are doing and how, so it's hard for me to guess.

It looks like we're just not properly disabling global history in our <browser> because it's inheriting the value from its windowless browser parent. That was an issue for our background pages before.
