Very low-volume but seems valid. We appear to be accessing sXErrorPtr when it's NULL here. Looking at the code this doesn't seem to be possible but I guess it could be happening if two threads create a ScopedXErrorHandler object at the same time and race.

bug 1741956 has a race with X Errors.

Since the crash volume is low (less than 5 per week), the severity is downgraded to S3. Feel free to change it back if you think the bug is still critical.

For more information, please visit auto_nag documentation.

Closing because no crashes reported for 12 weeks.
