Comment (by cypherpunks3):

 Replying to [comment:8 rustybird]:
 > the race much less likely to be "won" by the bug, but not impossible.
 Which could mean that it occasionally affects real websites as well.
 Hopefully, the patch fixes all of those cases.

 Ok. And your fix is to ignore the message? Isn't it evident that there's a
 concurrency bug in NoScript that should be fixed? Just quickly skimming
 over the code I can see that handling a `fetchChildPolicy` message
 involves objects that are mutated (I suppose initialised) in `init`, the
 function that sends `started` when completes. Do you see?
