Details

As discovered in bug 2025953.

We need to clear the referent of a weak ref if it is part of a cycle that is unlinked by the cycle collector. This happens for nsSupportsWeakReference but not JS WeakRef objects.

:jonco, what do you think the Severity of this problem should be?

It sounds bad, but we didn't notice any problems solely stemming from this so far. I'll make it S3.
