If an .xpi file is missing, the Mac installer hangs, and becomes unresponsive to
user events. Force quitting it then crashes the machine.

My comments from bug 87658:
When the file is not found (the retrieve command returns an E_CMD_FAIL) then we
try to close() the data socket. Previously we used to shutdown() the data
socket. This close() (of a valid socket descriptor) causes a hang.

By the definitions on <http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/bug_status.html#severity> and
<http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided>, crashing and dataloss
bugs are of critical or possibly higher severity. Only changing open bugs to
minimize unnecessary spam. Keywords to trigger this would be crash, topcrash,
topcrash+, zt4newcrash, dataloss.
Severity: normal → critical
Quoth Steve Dagley: "The Mac installer code was never Carbonized and there is no
intention to ever change that."
