Details

not sure who should look at this bug. It happened in both 7/16 and 7/17
embedding builds. Saw this assertion for mfcEmbed, winEmbed, and testEmbed.
1. Download latest source.
2. cd to embedding app dir like /mozilla/embedding/qa/testembed.
3. build the app. nmake -f makefile.win
4. cd /mozilla/dist/WIN32_D.OBJ/bin
5. run the app from the dos shell (e.g. testembed.exe).
Result: Get assertion: "event queue is null: 'mEventQueue', file
/mozilla/htmlparser/src/nsParser.cpp line 366. I press Retry to debug, but
nothing happens. Ignore keeps returning the assertion. Pressing abort quits the
app after getting another assert: "nsDOMEvent not thread-safe": 'owningThread ==
NS_CurrentThread()', file /mozilla/xpcom/base/nsDebug.cpp line 528.

The workaround is to remove the component.reg file from /bin dir. Then relaunch.
marking this as a dup of 92798
