It first showed up in 24.0a1/201360622. The regression range might be (startup crash):
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=7ba8c86f1a56&tochange=cea75ce9a559
It's likely a regression from bug 875335 that landed in the previous regression range.

And yes, I crash on startup running today's mozilla-central nightly with a clean profile on OS X 10.8.3.
Interestingly, I don't crash with the same STR on OS X 10.7.5.
I find the following regression range:

firefox-2013-06-20-03-10-10-mozilla-central
firefox-2013-06-21-03-10-51-mozilla-central

Which translates into:
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=8ea92aeab783&tochange=7ba8c86f1a56

And yes, this does include the patches for bug 875335.
Keywords: reproducible
I've been trying to narrow down the regression range I gave in comment #3.  But none of the custom builds I do reproduce the crash.

I suppose it's a matter of figuring out exactly what .mozconfig file to use, but that's turning out to be a lot more difficult than I expected.
Oh. I think replacing [NSView focusView] by self should fix this. [NSView focusView] is not guaranteed to be non-null during viewWillDraw, and since count is not initialized, calling getRectsBeingDrawn on nil will not update its valuee.

Looks reasonable.

You *could* also fix the crashes by doing this:

-   NSInteger count;
+   NSInteger count = 0;

Note also that -[NSRect getRectsBeingDrawn:...] probably doesn't work outside a call to -[NSView drawRect:].

But it seems to make better sense to get such a list from 'self' rather than from [NSView focusView] (which might return some other NSView altogether).

That would fix the crash, yes. But it wouldn't actually give us the rects we're interested in.
I've actually noticed a bug on 10.9 where we didn't redraw the window buttons in drawintitlebar windows on hover. For some reason I could only reproduce the bug in a nightly and not in a self-compiled build, but I hope this patch will fix it.

I assume you mean NSView instead of NSRect. As far as I know, getRectsBeingDraw will work inside drawRect and inside viewWillDraw. The docs for viewWillDraw say:

> A subclass’s implementation of viewWillDraw can use the existing NSView
> getRectsBeingDrawn:count: method to obtain a list of rectangles that bound the
> affected area, enabling it to restrict its efforts to that area.

I've confirmed that this patch fixes that bug, too.
It's #1 top crasher in 24.0a2 on Mac OS X.

Yes :-)

You're right.  I stand corrected.
