No errors printed, every reftest that ran passed, but reftest crashed, and there's no obvious sign that it did except for scrolling to the end of the reftest execution and noting:

REFTEST PASS: file:///builds/slave/trunk_centos5/mozilla/layout/reftests/bugs/375827-1.html

(Gecko:8694): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_drawable_set_colormap: assertion `cmap == NULL || gdk_drawable_get_depth (drawable) == cmap->visual->depth' failed

(Gecko:8694): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_paint_box: assertion `style->depth == gdk_drawable_get_depth (window)' failed
The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
  (Details: serial 532636 error_code 8 request_code 70 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Not how to change the code to fix this; the relevant stuff is at:

Maybe stash status in an instance property or something and check it in createSummary?

AFAIK, nobody from RelEng will be working on this soon.

Comment 2

I think this isn't an issue since 483111 landed - what do you think Jeff?

Comment 3

[Jeff Walden [:Waldo]]

Agreed, fixed by bug 483111.

Comment 4

[Chris Cooper [:coop] (he/him)]

Moving closed Future bugs into Release Engineering in preparation for removing the Future component.
