We enabled crash reporting at runtime on all non-debug builds in bug 717538. We skipped debug builds because crash reporting can interfere with debugging on some platforms. On B2G this is more of a PITA because the B2G process starts up automatically and we don't get to set the environment variable to enable it unless we kill and restart the process. This means that we have a window where we can miss crashes in debug builds because we haven't restarted the process. We should just enable crash reporting on gonk builds. B2G desktop builds don't have this problem (because we start the process directly), so fixing it for gonk would be fine.

ahal: did you put a patch for this on some other bug? I feel like I reviewed this recently.

Yeah, it was bug 866937. Sorry, didn't realize this bug existed, I just put it there because that's where the discussion was happening.
