Attachment: XPCOM_MEM_LEAK_LOG for session

sayrer is trying to help me track down some leaks I'm having. Attached is the XPCOM mem leak log that I can reproduce consistently.

Here are the steps I used to get these leaks:
1. XPCOM_MEM_LEAK_LOG=leaklog-emptyprof-2008011.log ./firefox -no-remote -P
2. Create new profile using profile manager
3. Start browser with new profile
4. Say no to "default browser" message
5. Select File->Quit
6. Say no to "Do you want to save tabs..." message
7. Frown at leak log

re-nominating for blocking since:

I did some tests again and it seems that this leaks every time when the default browser question comes up. So its not only a leak when you create a profile

I'd still say we have more important leaks to fix.
