47753 - Close Window quits browser with >1 windows

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 47491

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

[Rich Tollerton]

Basically if I have more than one window open and I invoke the "Close Window"
command (either by Alt-W or the menu item) all windows close and Mozilla quits.
No error messages are displayed on the xterm during its shutdown besides the
WEBSHELL- and ~nsWidget() debug messags, and those don't look any different than
under a normal shutdown.

I haven't figured out the general reproducible case, but about 90% of all close
window attempts end this way. Some don't though - a reproducible way to have the
correct behavior happen is to open Mozilla, open a new window, load something in
that window, then switch back to the 1st window and close that window. The new
window stays up.

The window-closing buttons on the window manager still work ok, so it isn't like
I'm losing much functionality (besides the keyboard shortcut).

gcc 2.95.2, XFree86 4, Sawfish 0.30.3. I'm using a local build of Mozilla,
updated from CVS last night. I'm pretty sure I'm not using any configure options
(--enable-optimize etc).
