Sorry, previous emails went personally to Piotr.

Wow!  Black magic!  Now it segfaults *after* show_all()  :)

$ MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel python /tmp/mozembed.py
!!! here
!!! there
zsh: segmentation fault  MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel 
python /tmp/mozembed.py

Current backtrace is:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Exploring xulrunner sources for last several hours.  Is it a common 
policy there not to check for values, returned from do_CreateInstance 
and do_QueryInterface?   The returned values are used blindly 
disregarding that no instance was created to handle the calls...


Digging further, thanks for the insight
