Could you provide a stack trace from a build with symbols, or a talkback ID from
an official build? The attachment at
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102957 is not a stack trace.

I will try to make a version with symbols and provide a stack trace next 
week.  The links you gave don't appear to give advice on this specifically 
except in the case of talkback.  Any advice on how to compile a version with 
symbols and provide the required stack trace would be gratefully appreciated.  
Otherwise, I will explore firefox -g, compile options and the gdb docs etc. 

Re: the other options given for his bug report. I have not found any official 
64 bit amd64 builds or a 64 bit version with talkback enabled.  Does either 
thing exist?

[Christian :Biesinger (don't email me, ping me on IRC)]

SetFilter should just be changed to take an AString rather than a wstring

shouldnt happen anymore with refspoof as i added a filterAll filepicker filter
