fixed with firefox 123.0.1nb1 For future reference to myself: when debugging firefox, I keep forgetting it has ample logging and spits out the occasional function name giving you pointers for where to start reading the code. You can do this with either the MOZ_LOG environment variable or about:logging page. firefox's ktrace, meanwhile, is an endless stream of queries getting the current time of day and polling.
