After entering data in wizard screens, the installer starts downloading. This 
finishes and 'extracting files....' message comes up. Wizard quits. No messages 
on screen.
Linux installer was working yesterday and over the weekend.
This doesn't sound like it's broken by dbragg's change.  

Possibly caused by new changes went in yesterday.

Doug, can you take a look at this bug too?

NS_InitXPCOM is failing in the QI to nsDirectoryService.  Investigation 
continues.
Doug just checked in a patch from tor@cs.brown.edu that fixes this.  Thanks Tim!
