Yes, that's the one. I have a fix available along with some other bug
fixes as an OverbiteFF 3.1 (as a down-payment on an Electrolysis-ready
OverbiteFF in 4.0). If people want to try it and don't mind running an
unsigned addon, contact me off list. 38.* is now the minimum. Once we have
some confirmation of working on 38ESR, 43 and 45 nightly (the next ESR),
we'll push to AMO.
4.0 may need to be a total rewrite, unfortunately. E10s really changes the
guts of Firefox substantially.
