I am running Firefox 3.6.13 on top of xulrunner 1.9.2.13, both compiled from source. When I drag a tab to rearrange it, Firefox crashes with the following error shown in the terminal (if run from the terminal):

      1. !!! ABORT: X_ChangeWindowAttributes: BadPixmap (invalid Pixmap parameter); 4 requests ago: file /usr/src/xulrunner/mozilla-1.9.2/toolkit/xre/nsX11ErrorHandler.cpp, line 182

UNKNOWN [ /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2.13/libxul.so +0x001BB436 ] Aborted

My xulrunner mozconfig is as follows:

ac_add_options --enable-application=xulrunner mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/../xulrunner-build ac_add_options --prefix=/usr ac_add_options --enable-optimize ac_add_options --enable-system-sqlite ac_add_options --enable-system-cairo ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg ac_add_options --with-system-nspr ac_add_options --with-system-nss ac_add_options --with-system-png ac_add_options --with-system-zlib

After having a similar error occur in Evince (then purposely forcing it to occur in Eclipse), I figured the error was in GTK. I recompiled gdk-pixbuf and gtk+ with no optimizations, and the error went away.
