Public bug reported:

Sorry if this ends up being a duplicate of any other bug, but I searched
through all similar issues and none seems to match the problem that
occurs on my system.

Sometimes when I start thunderbird (via unity launcher) it hangs
consuming 100% cpu. The thunderbird window is visible then but
completely empty. The menus are already there but not filled with any
menu items. This lasts endless as far as I could see.

If I look for the thunderbird processes there are actually two
"thunderbird-bin", one being the child of the other one:

oliver   31023     1  1 14:39 ?        00:00:04 
/usr/lib/thunderbird-9.0/thunderbird-bin
oliver   31025 31023 98 14:39 ?        00:05:52 
/usr/lib/thunderbird-9.0/thunderbird-bin

If I kill the dependent process (31025 in this example) thunderbird
suddenly starts as expected and the CPU traffic is gone.

The same sometimes happens with firefox, sometimes even while this is
already running ok. I sometimes can trigger this by clicking an internet
link in some other application (Gwibber for example). Then again there
are multiple processes of "firefox", the original one and the one that
wants to open the clicked link. The link opens in a new tab, but the
separate process remains consuming 100% cpu.

If I then stop and start firefox again I have the same "empty window
hang" like on thunderbird.
