*doh* just as i was about to open the tree to death and destruction too. Nice
catch Mike. We'll keep her shut down until we know what's causing bookmarks to
go away.

very easy to repro. if you add a bookmark then quit, it will be gone on relaunch.

Anyone try smfr's fix to bug 80722 on this? It has to do with failure in 
nsILocalFile.

Comment 9

[Scott MacGregor]

pink, can you grab the changes simon just checked in a little while ago and
rebuild your mac with those? 

Comment 10

[Simon Fraser [no longer active]]

I can't repro this after building with my other fixes.

[Dan M]

Same here. Mac Mozilla ate all my bookmarks this morning. After restoring them 
and building with Simon's fix for 80722, my bookmarks are happy.

Comment 12

[Mike Pinkerton (not reading bugmail)]

yes, smfr's checkin fixed this, among other things.
