Details

It looks like a few days ago a comm-central 3.2 builder had Thunderbird die during the content-policy tests: http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showlog.cgi?log=ThunderbirdTest/1269853497.1269854802.21009.gz It looks like my exception handling or what not did not properly kill the vncserver and it has broken all runs on that builder since then. I hadn't really meant for vncserver to be active on those boxes... I expect it's triggering because the builder is probably already running inside a vncserver... Anywho, I'll make a bustage fix that causes it to forcibly kill the existing VNC server at startup time if it has trouble spawning. (Or maybe always? Something.)
fix pushed to comm-central: http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/rev/094df5229d24 This has brought the ThunderbirdTest runner back from the grave. But it came back angry! Luckily it was angry before the grave too.
