I just saw something similar tonight.  Let me attach a screenshot.  It's not the
same error, but it's in the same file.  I got the error visiting
http://greyghost.hypermart.net.  What sites are you visiting to generate the
assertion?

Attachment: Screenshot of firebird assertion

My error message is in the same file, just slightly different in what asserted
and the line number.  Not sure if it's worthy of a test, and admittedly, I
haven't tried one of the latest nightlies with it.

Just installed the 20030909 Firebird nightly, and I get the same behavior as I
had in 0.6.  I'll try on my XP laptop sometime; I remember getting Java to work
properly there.  Methinks the product needs to change to Firebird.

I have a similar error message when I visit some JAVA rich webpages like
www.arktis.co.uk
If I click on any of the buttons, Mozilla closes down.

WFM with Firefox 0.8.  If someone can reproduce this with a recent build, please
feel free to reopen and give further details
