After a long moment, firefox show the error "Error during XSLT transformation:
XSLT Stylesheet (possibly) contains a recursion." a quarter of second and crash.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create an XML like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="bug.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<page>
 <title>Deuxième titre</title>
 <content>Contenu 1</content> 
 <comment>Commentaire 1</comment>
</page>

2.Create a XSLT like :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
	<xsl:output method="html"/>
	<xsl:template match="page">
		<html>
			<head>
				<title>
					<xsl:value-of select="title" />
				</title>
			</head>
			<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
				<xsl:apply-templates select="/" />
			</body>
		 </html>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="title">
		<h1 align="center">
			<xsl:apply-templates />
		</h1>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="content">
		<p align="center">
			<xsl:apply-templates />
		</p>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="comment">
		<hr />
		<xsl:apply-templates />
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

3.Save them, modify the name of the link in the XML and open it.

Actual Results:  
Some seconds after I get the error "Error during XSLT transformation: XSLT
Stylesheet (possibly) contains a recursion." and firefox crash a quarter of
second  later.

Expected Results:  
Only show the error.

I don't know how to get the talkback crash ID (if it is what is send whith the
QA tool).
I forget that I have seen olds bugs that can be linked with this : 298866 and
103295.
In safe mode, I don't see the error, it crash directly.
Summary: crash if there is a recusrion in a XSLT file → crash if there is a recursion in a XSLT file

A fix for that bug was added to the 1.5 nightlies, so please test with build
dated 14-September or later from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla1.8/
(The build should appear within 3 hours of this post)
It is a duplicate of bug 226425.
I was only searching in the opened bug...
Sorry.
