Further testing in Safe-mode, and a New Profile.. I don't see the errors as noted above.  However, I have other extensions that use the Statusbar. 

Statusbar clock and ForecastFox - so maybe its a 'positional' issue if other items are on the Statusbar ? 

I still see no 'progress meter' but the download status shows. 

I also made sure I had the js strict errors enabled in about:config since Console2 forces those by default.

More...  Now I can't repo this with my working Profile.  I'll leave it open till someone can look at the previous errors.

I'm going to close this INVALID, I've not been able to reproduce the error through several different hourly's & nightlys.
