Minefield (Firefox 3.2 alpha) fails to launch on my G5 PowerPC Mac.  I get dock bounces, and then the program dies after the OS confirms that I want to run it.  My system log shows that the failure occurs with error:

com.apple.launchd[73] ([0x0-0x3c63c6].org.mozilla.firefox[49715]): Exited with exit code: 1

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Install Minefield into applications folder
2.  Launch, watch icon bounce in dock, then program dies (confirmed with activity monitor)
3.  Get error com.apple.launchd[73] ([0x0-0x3c63c6].org.mozilla.firefox[49715]): Exited with exit code: 1
Actual Results:  
Program fails to launch.

Expected Results:  
Program runs normally

Note: the same program launches correctly on Windows and on my Intel Mac.  Just not on my PowerPC Mac.

Dupe of bug 475199. Hopefully this should be fixed in the next nightly.
