------- Comment #2 from bdash at webkit.org  2007-05-14 22:21 PDT -------
Please test the most recently nightly builds when filing obvious crashers like
this.  This was fixed in r21419 several days ago, and there have been at least
4 builds with the fix included.

A "Safari extension" is any piece of executable code loaded into the Safari
process via an unsupported mechanism.  This includes input managers, APE
haxies, and SIMBL plugins.  There is no way to determine what such an extension
will do once it has been loaded so the policy is that if we experience a crash,
the user is asked to disable these extensions before reporting the bug so as to
remove any blame from these unsupported extension mechanisms.  The code that
detects such extensions is very trivial, and it is rather unlikely it would be
to blame for any crashes.
