Comment 1

[Jonas Sicking (:sicking) No longer reading bugmail consistently]

Can you get this to leak more than two nsGlobalWindows, otherwise I don't think this is a blocker.

Comment 2

[Damon Sicore (:damons)]

Leaks on installation, not a blocker.  Wanted 1.9.0.x.

Comment 3

[Damon Sicore (:damons)]

Actually, tomcat will re-test this bug and re-nom if it's leaking more nsGlobalWindows.

Comment 4

[Samuel Sidler (old account; do not CC)]

This bug does not meet the new maintenance release (1.9.0.x) criteria (security, stability, regression from maintenance release).
