Details

Interrupted debugger sessions can cause debuggee to hang. STR: 1) Connect debugger to debuggee 2) Set breakpoint in script 3) Introduce some adverse network conditions (wander out of WIFI range, etc) 4) Cause debugee to hit aforementioned breakpoint 5) When this happened to me, the whole of fennec became unresponsive - I forced the process to stop. In hindsight I perhaps should have tried harder to recover to get more information. I've not been able to reproduce this issue since initial observation
cc'ing lucasr for a little consultation. This is hard to reproduce and only happens over wifi, afawk.

There has been no activity no this bug for over 2 years, so I'm leaning towards closing it unless the problem occured recently.
