Attached file testcase
1. Start a debug build of Firefox.

2. Enable accessibility, e.g. by pasting the following into the js console:

Components.classes["@mozilla.org/accessibilityService;1"]
      .getService(Components.interfaces.nsIAccessibleRetrieval);

3. Load the testcase.

Result: Firefox hits the assertion added in bug 634197.

###!!! ASSERTION: Flush during accessible tree update!: '!accService->IsProcessingRefreshDriverNotification()', file layout/base/nsPresShell.cpp, line 3914

Security-sensitive for now because bug 634197 was inspired by security bugs.

sorry, I missed request. This bug is consequence of the bug 634197 which is landed on Mozilla 10 only so no flushing during accessible tree update. I don't think there's a real security problem here.
Ok, thanks! I'm marking this as unaffected for 8 and 9 then, meaning there's no security worry with those releases relating to this bug.
