thunderbird-bin crashed with SIGSEGV in JS_DHashTableEnumerate()

[shane19174]

Binary package hint: thunderbird

Running Intrepid beta, fully updated as of October 23, 2008. I have no idea why this crash happened: Thunderbird was open in one workspace while I was browsing a web page in Firefox in another. I noticed in the system monitor applet that CPU usage had suddenly gone up with no apparent reason, so I opened the monitor to locate the culprit. It was apport, and it continued using CPU until a popup appeared informing me that Thunderbird had closed unexpectedly.

Let me know if there's any info that I can provide to help.

i think those kind of garbage collector things should be fixed on trunk. lets see if we still get such reports when tbird 3 is out.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
