this also comes a failure in

I can't be sure but this random failure started after the push+backout of bug 633221
Summary: intermittent failure in test_421977.js | (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIGConfService.getString] → intermittent failure in test_421977.js | (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIGConfService.getString] followed by failure in test_handlerService.js | true == false
Actually started on the push, and I misstarred that one as being fixed by the backout.

it's even possible relanding bug 633221 fixed this?
I'm mostly thinking to the case the test in that bug could change some OS setting to a value persisted across restarts?

There will inevitably be some false positives; for that (and the bugspam) I apologise. Filter on orangewfm.
