a method that seems to trigger the bug in 100% of the cases for me:

* run firefox in gdb
* set a breakpoint on nsAppShell::Spindown
* run the test testcase which should trigger the breakpoint
* continue execution which leads to a SIGSEGV with the same stack backtrace

I have no idea why, but this bug seems to be introduced by the commit from bug 368501. When I undo this commit in the current cvs 1.8 branch, the testcase above does not crash firefox anymore.
