mozjs.dll crash 26.0.3

[PhilK]

Had PaleMoon x64 crash yesterday while viewing a wikipedia page and pressing an arrow button. I don't know why an arrow button would precipitate such a thing, unless one of my extensions had something to do with it. (For example, I use "Imagus", which expands image thumbnails or image links on a page when hovering over them.)

Here are the Windows crash details (Windows 7 Ultimate x64):

At first glance this looks like a potential compat issue with the loaded NVidia modules. It would need a debugger attached to actually see what's going on, though.

This may actually get solved in 26.1 so please see if that version does any better (will be out next week).

Thanks. Unfortunately this is probably going to be hard to verify because I don't have issues with wikipedia pages in general and PaleMoon (even 26.0.3) hasn't been crashing much, but I will certainly use the new version and report if I see any other crashes.

My biggest worry these days is losing access to all the extensions that I rely upon to add important functionality, given the Goanna fork and the killing-off of non-signed extensions for mainline FF.

Goanna is our rendering and layout engine -- this doesn't really have much if anything to do with extension compatibility.
Signed extensions is something we won't enforce.

I understand and appreciate your position on signed extensions. (And your stance on most issues, tbh, which is why I usually use PaleMoon as my primary browser these days. )

But I guess wrt to Goanna it's probably more accurate to say "the changes to PM 26+ that change compatibility with, or require special versions of current FF extensions". I'm guessing once FF ESR switches to the v44+ codebase, most extension developers will stop developing for earlier FF versions. (Or, I assume, most forks which forked prior to that point.)

Some extensions I use - eg HackTheWeb installed on a FF ESR installation here - probably will never be updated because they are abandoned so when ESR shifts to the newer codebase, that extension will become useless. (I already have to keep a downrev version of Stylish on that install, because HTW isn't compatible with Stylish 2.x)
