From my 12:00 pm build on 5-6-99, when I run, I abort on startup. I tried removing my registry, but that didn't help. -Seth #0 0x407cf6a1 in ?? () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x407d06df in ??

Looks more like something with the component rather than xpcom.

One of the hints to the problem is all the RegisterComponent(NSLOCALE_DLL) calls from webshell/tests/viewer/nsSetupRegistry.cpp These calls should be removed.

Sorry, I had mentioned you(dp) to Seth since the file where the component is supposed to be registered is in nsLocaleSO.cpp and it looks like you were the last one to make changes to it with the UnregisterComponent call. I'm not sure why this would cause the crash though.

I'm can change the component registration today, but I would prefer not to until we have some understanding as to what is causing the problems in #5564. Basically when I removed the component registration calls on windows it caused the library load to fail.

The key is the order of registrations has changed from: apprunner static components and then the dynamic components from the components/ directory. Before it was the other way around. I am working with tague on this to see what is wrong. I dont understand both these bugs with nslocale.dll

changed. i still want an answer to #5564, but this will get people over the current linux bustage.

Adding crash keyword

This was fixed ages ago I guess. Marking Verified.
