bug 633869 seems to be caused by people having Firefox components from two separate builds. It would help us to know if this is a new problem or something that happens regularly. Is it possible to construct queries of this kind?

Not sure what the best evidence might be, but let's go with what we see in bug 633869: search for Firefox 3.6.x crashes where the module version of firefox.exe does not match brwsrcmp.dll.  For example, in bug 633869 we're seeing firefox.exe version 1.9.2.4038 (3.6.14 build 1) and brwsrcmp.dll 1.9.2.4055 (3.6.14 build 2).

1) of people with Firefox 3.6.14, what percentage of crashes show these specific versions, what percent show both 1.9.2.4038 and what percent show both 1.9.2.4055

2) Of Firefox 3.6.x in general, what percentage of crashes have different module versions?

3) Can we get a count by Firefox version (or buildID) of how many crashes show mismatched modules. We're looking to see if this is an ongoing persistent issue or if it got worse at some point. Maybe percentage would be better than count since the vast majority of 3.6 users will be using 3.6.13 and that will swamp any numerical results.

I'm assuming you'd run this query over a small time range for sanity's sake. A couple of days or a week would be plenty of data. Maybe even just one day if the query takes a long time to run.
