Unfortunately there is no practical way to make use of this kind of
report.  If you really believe this is a reproducible memory issue you
can search for the change that introduced the problem by using the
subversion repository and testing various revisions of firebug/
branches/firebug1.8 to isolate the change. However, 1.8 has lots of
infrastructure changes and some of the intermediate revisions don't
work.
