[Bug 367706] Re: Firefox and epiphany won't start. "Bus error"

Okay, a clean reinstall from the CD fixed all the errors.  I then
installed the updates, no crash this time, and they all succeeded.  The
latest Firefox/xulrunner now runs normally.  /home is on a separate
partition and was not touched by the reinstall, so I should be using the
same user-configuration files as before.

In my case I think there must have been some file corruption, although
which file would apparently only affect xulrunner, and yet persist
across reinstalls of the Mozilla packages, I've no idea.  The other
possibility is that some in-between updates that were skipped this time
somehow affected the update process, which could explain why some other
people are seeing the bus error.

Not sure if this info is of any use to anyone, but there you go.
