1401814 - Enable crash reporter in linux64-ccov builds

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: Code Coverage, enhancement)

Description

[Marco Castelluccio [:marco]]

The crash reporter is currently disabled in code coverage builds [1].

We should try to enable it, as it makes debugging crashes on automation easier (see for example bug 1395390).

Here's a try build with the crash reporter enabled: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=0475b90ae391f948333b9d7ec819c00b00033c2c. Let's see if there are failures.

I only see some intermittents, but nothing that could be due to enabling the crash reporter.

Luckily, one of the intermittents is a crash and so we can verify that with this option removed we indeed see stack traces in the test logs: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer.html#?job_id=132364388&repo=try&lineNumber=11605.
