New issue 17999 by CalebEgg: Logic to detect if browser is already running  
is inaccurate
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=17999

This isn't fully reproducible, but sometimes after Chrome crashes when I try
to restart it, nothing happens. So I try from the command line and it says:

caleb...@skids:~$ google-chrome
/opt/google/chrome/chrome: Symbol `SSL_ImplementedCiphers' has different
size in shared object, consider re-linking
Created new window in existing browser session.

I am pretty sure that it's not still running. pgrep -l chrome returns
nothing. The only thing I have found that helps is restarting X or using a
different --user-data-dir.

The bug in all of this is not really the crashing; it's that whatever is
being used to detect if the browser is already running is inaccurate; it's
possible for Chrome to crash in such a way that it is left in a state where
it looks like the browser is still running, but it isn't.
