It's a low volume crash that only affects JAWS 11 users at least in 14.0a2 and 15.0a1.

want to update this comment? or perhaps mark it as defunct here, to restore behavior from before making IsDefunct() inline?

it's reasonable assumption since bug 737724 (inlinging IsDefunct()) is landed on 14 where the crash appeared.
