I _think_ I saw that myself a few weeks (or months) ago, but I didn't make a note of it. That suggests it was something obvious, such as editing the mozconfig and doing that badly. The final comment in https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/50231 suggests a similar error was caused by something wrong with the mozconfig. ĸen -- I live in a city. I know sparrows from starlings.
