901171 - Youtube crashes in Nightly

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 900987

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Dan Weiss]

Nightly is crashing whenever I visit a video page on Youtube.
If I use the same exact profile in Aurora, Youtube works fine without crashing.

If I use a fresh profile in Nightly, Youtube also works without crashing, but I don't want to have to rebuild my profile from scratch to work around a regression.

Here's the crash data.  Looks like some string function accessing a null pointer.

Looks like bug 900987, which has a fix that will land soon.
If the problem persists after that bug is resolved as fixed, then please reopen
this bug.  (it may take a day or two for the fix to make it into Nightly)

Thanks for your report.
