Details

If the user installs the Geoguide extension, Fennec will restart after it is installed. At that point, if the user selects the Guide in the options panel, the Geoguide will attempt to draw a map and then will crash after several seconds. 

On subsequent launches, if the Geoguide is used, sometimes it will work and sometimes it will crash.

This was seen on the n810 running the 6/16 build.

Geoguide has not been upgraded for a while and does not work since the tiling stuff landed. I'll do an upgrade asap.
this isn't a bug in fennec, but rather the extension.  we should disable the addon if it isn't/hasn't been updated on amo.

sorry for bug spam.
Many of the bugs which are marked invalid, I see comments telling it occurred in one version or other. But later it was fixed due to 1) by backingout the patch which made regression or 2) by fixing some other bug.
So if we can identify the bug/patch/reason then we should state that and mark those as FIXED. If not mark as WORKSFORME in that case.
