User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.8a5) Gecko/20041017

After clearing a mailnews folder search, and closing the search dialog, mozilla
crashes with the following error (debug build):

Gdk-ERROR **: BadPixmap (invalid Pixmap parameter)
  serial 23673 error_code 4 request_code 54 minor_code 0
nsStringStats
 => mAllocCount:          33479
 => mReallocCount:         2900
 => mFreeCount:           30183  --  LEAKED 3296 !!!

 => mAdoptCount:           3325
 => mAdoptFreeCount:       3265  --  LEAKED 60 !!!


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start mozilla -mail
2. On a folder with messages in, right click and select search.
3. Enter a search such that some messages will be matched by subject (I think it
works with any option, but that's what I used and it found 2/2 messages).
4. Select Search and messages are displayed in the results view.
5. Select Clear
6. Close Search window using the 'x'.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla crashed with GDK error described above.

Expected Results:  
Carried on working.

No stack or talkback was created.

this looks GTKish (I was testing a gtk1 build).  the crash regressed between
6/15 and 7/2

In case it helps, I also have gtk-1.2 on my distribution (mandrake 10).

This bug is similar to that of bug 254049 (same results) they may also have the
same cause, but suggest we leave both open for the time being until we get a
solution.

Thanks to Andrew for the regression window - I have tracked it down to bug
241507 causes this and several other bugs.

I am therefore going to close this bug as a duplicate of bug 254049 as they are
both appear to be the result of the same problem.
