[Bug 155415] Re: Thunderbird freezes on dual core system

[Rich Wales]

Hi, John -- Thanks for your comments.

I tried changing the way I launch Thunderbird.  Instead of invoking the
executable directly, I am now exec'ing it from a shell script that
captures any output into a log file.  After I did this, Thunderbird
courteously obliged by freezing :-}, and I got the following error:

*** glibc detected *** /home/richw/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin:
malloc(): memory corruption: 0xaad841a0 ***

plus a backtrace and a memory map, which I'm including here as an
attachment.

Since this is my production work environment, I really can't "disable
all plugins/addons/extensions" without creating what, for me, would be
an unusable setup.  If there's any way at all to use the error output I
just got to identify any offending add-on, that would be very helpful to
me in this situation.
