Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
If I attempt to install greasemonkey, firefox3.6 will refuse to load (exit code 1, with nothing on stderr) the time after the next restart.
Steps to reproduce for me:
1) start firefox
2) install greasemonkey
3) quit firefox
4) start firefox (greasemonkey is fine)
5) quit firefox
6) start firefox, but it fails with exit code 1
To recover I must:
1) start firefox with -safe-mode
2) uninstall greasemonkey
3) quit firefox
4) start firefox

Chris, mind looking into this issue? It's been plaguing me as well since the sprint last month. I think it's affected seb128 too.
asac suggested this might be a known issue upstream so perhaps there is already a fix for the problem somewhere?
