Details

Trunk build, fresh pull today, FreeBSD 4.3

nsSafeSaveFile::CreateBackup() calls CopyToNative with a 1st parameter of
nsnull.  That's "newParent" in io/nsLocalFileUnix.cpp's CopyToNative(), and
there's no check for a null newParent before using it.

Win32 (nsLocalFileWin.cpp) ends up checking for/handling a null newParent.

Crashes randomly and often!
I think bnesse backed himself out after tbox went orange.
I landed sfrasers patch for bug 164190 on the trunk. It was backed out shortly
thereafter due to orangeness. This is fixed.
