Hey Chris,

  This has been fixed in the latest release candidate 1.6.5.rc2, the change
was calling firefox-bin to start it up instead of the firefox shell script.
http://github.com/bret/watir/commit/3c3a130b2e8f48a1d1e0c5ceab4f44f6bf4a146c

If you want to give 1.6.5.rc2 a try, here are the gems and some instructions
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Development+Builds
otherwise I am planning to do an official release of 1.6.5 this week barring
any reported problems.

 Hi...

 Oddly enough my problem is described exactly in a Selenium thread here:
 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1364523/firefox-bin-quit-unexpectedly-while-running-selenium-test

 Firefox runs normally until I try to use FireWatir. The error message is as
 described in the stackoverflow page.

 When I do

 mv /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/libsqlite3.dylib
 /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/libsqlite3.dylib.orig

 Firefox won't launch normally or under FireWatir, and reports

 SQLite Version Error/The application has been updated, but your version of
 SQLite is too old and the application cannot run.

 (Interestingly, the identical issue at mozilla
 http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/486263 is marked solved even
 though the only successful strategy was to roll back FF to an earlier
 version.  Also, more information here:
 http://jira.openqa.org/browse/SRC-743)

 I don't see any sign of an authoritative fix.  If anyone has one, please
 let me know.
