It's unclear to me whether the patch in bug 280236 exposed or caused leaks. timeless says he doesn't know how it could've caused them.

Aus, can you have a look at this one? Looks like this was caused by your checkin, which I guess wasn't really your code per se, but you pushed it in so you get first shot at tracking this down. This is a 1.9 blocker, increasing leaks is bad :)

Hard to say when these leaks went away, but they're not longer there. sayrer's XPCNativeWrapped cycle collection patch probably helped a bit.
