Testcase (needs to be chrome):
var xml = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/xmlextras/xmlhttprequest;1"]
                    .createInstance(Components.interfaces.nsIXMLHttpRequest);
xml.open("GET", "javascript:1;", true); // just "javascript:" (without the
                                        // statement) doesn't crash
xml.send(null);

The principal at:
http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=mozilla/dom/src/jsurl/nsJSProtocolHandler.cpp&rev=1.119&mark=253,256#245
has a null URI.

So I assume we should treat having a system principal here as an NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE or something so we get a null principal, right?

I'm seeing this crash on the 1.8 branch, the <image><url>javascript:alert(Components.stack);</url></image> code in http://wargers.org/mozilla/contents.rdf is triggering it when passed through Firefox's feed handling code (that runs in chrome?!). TB18375976E is the stack.
