Testcase:

  <style type="text/css">
    #foo {}
  </style>
  <body id>
  </body>

This triggers: 

  ###!!! ASSERTION: wrong type: 'Type() == eAtom', file ../../../mozilla/dom/base/nsAttrValue.h, line 494

with a callstack pointing to Gecko_AtomAttrValue.

In Gecko, id attributes are stored as atoms _except_ if the value is empty; that case is stored as a string, effectively.  Now it happens to be the case that an empty string is stored as a null pointer in nsAttrValue, so when that gets returned as nsIAtom* servo sees a null there and treats that as None.

Anyway, in terms of fixes, seems like we should just check attr->Type() == nsAttrValue::eAtom and return null if so.
