Details

After a crash, the session restore service gives you the opportunity to restore your session, and allows you to select which windows and tabs from the previous session you wish to reload. However, if you uncheck any of the windows/tabs, then all that you'll get when you click the Restore button is a javascript error. Since not everybody keeps the js console open, it appears to be a silent error.

The error is:

Error: Array.prototype.toSource called on incompatible ChromeObjectWrapper

To recover your session at this point, you must reload the page and click restore without first deselecting anything.
I have the same problem on trunk.  Another workaround is to use the dialog under History > "Restore from last session" which allows the user to deselect windows without any error.
This is the same bug as bug 558540.
Thanks Andreas
