Hey Grant,

We've seen that error pop up on our Mac staff clients (and Linux ones) as well since 1.6.0.0.  Our current Mac client users are using a 1.6.0.2 that I packaged together using a fresh source from our production server before we went live.

I asked once about it awhile back and it was mentioned in this IRC log:  http://www.openevergreen.net/irc_logs/evergreen/2009-12/%23evergreen.04-Fri-2009.log  It looked like there were some conflicting id collisions among the xul elements according to phasefx.

With our recent migration work we'd been doing, I haven't had a change to come back to this problem yet, but I'll poke around to see what else I can gather.
