Details

In some circumstances, like in content/events/test/test_focus_disabled.html, if InitTargetObjects ends up in a JS api call that sets an exception, it doesn't end up getting caught anywhere, so at some random later point you end up hitting an assertion about there being a lingering exception on the context.  I'll try to come up with a C++ patch that demonstrates the issue.

XBL is now disabled in Firefox (Bug 1583314) and is in the process of being removed from Gecko (Bug 1566221), so closing bugs requesting changes to its implementation as wontfix.
