Here's a patch that works around the issue for me. It's definitely not a pretty solution, we just short-circuit the code that mozilla has to handle un-realize/re-realize. At the very least this is a memory leak, however it only leaks when the user deletes sites, which isn't going to happen very often. I'm also a little worried that the unrealize code is important for other reasons, however I haven't got xulrunner to crash in my testing.

Can other people test it out and see if they have problems? I think that we should have a cleaner solution for 3.1, but for a quick and dirty fix for only lucid, maybe it could work.
