Is this related to bug 255942?

Possibly related to bug 341592?

This bug still happens on trunk (linux), but only when starting up via the profile manager.

Attachment: The stack causes the assertion

This is the debug information on my box. The problem here is that we attempt to get a script-language during shutdown.

The bug should be related to bug 341592 as Gavin pointed out. I've tried the last patch for that bug on my build. The assertion problem is fixed.

In the log for nsDOMScriptObjectFactory.cpp, bz said that the patch caused the leak problem for bug 341700, and backed out it. In my build, the bug still exist. If the patch doesn't work, we need to find out another approach.

Not blocking for now. If this really is a crash rather than just an assertion then please renominate. All the bugs pointed to in the previous comment are fixed now.

Marking blocking- per above comment.
