From Jamie:
"The COM dll in question here (AccessibleMarshal.dll) is actually a COM proxy
dll. It is necessary for cross-process communication when an out-of-process
client requires one of the ISimpleDom* interfaces. On a 64 bit system, both 32
bit and 64 bit proxy dlls need to be registered (regardless of whether Firefox
is 32 bit or 64 bit), as the proxy dll is loaded into the *client* process.
Thus, if you only install a 64 bit dll with 64 bit Firefox, 32 bit clients
won't be able to access ISimpleDom*. The reverse applies for 32 bit Firefox."

Ugh, this bug got lost. Robert, I don't know how to proceed here and I'm not sure if this bug is filed in the right place? How would we install/register both 32 and 64 bit dlls?

The install part should be the same as it is for any new file. To register we'd have to register the new dll the same way the existing version is registered today.

btw: after you get it building, etc. I'll take care of the install / update code to finish this up.
