Actually it is bug 271716 that has the attachment.

The whole point of a testcase is that it causes whatever was described in the
bug, in this case a crash happens.

How about a stack, or talkback id?  Without that, we can't be sure which bug
this dups, bug 271716 or bug 203278.

Tested attachment 167017 [details] with latest nightly, a warning that a script was

Choosing yes allowed the browser to recover gracefuly.
