cjones, did you happen to change serialization or something related between 3.6.6 and 3.6.7?

Hrm, I got http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/da4fa239-c30c-4b6c-babf-a70cd2100722 which is [@ free | nsPluginInstanceOwner::~nsPluginInstanceOwner() ]
But I have it in recording, and so this is probably the same as bug 581020.
Blocks: 581020
This is caused by a logical mismatch in nsPluginInstanceOwner::EnsureCachedAttrParamArrays

http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.9.2/source/layout/generic/nsObjectFrame.cpp?mark=3590-3595,3651-3655#3584

If there is a data="" parameter, the block at 3590 will increment mNumCachedAttrs but data is an empty string. The condition at 3651 will not be true and nextAttrParamIndex will become out of sync with reality.

This logic error was made worse in bug 572985 because the subsequent hunks for cached param values are now using nextAttrParamIndex and not mNumCachedAttrs + 1 + c.
