I had the same problem. This time with 2.0.0.12.

I also had a similar message while administrating my WordPress blog, though I 
didn't attribute that to Mozilla (I should, it was talking about a chrome:// 
URL then, too, but then I was preoccupied with WordPress administration).
On my first attempt to write this reply, I did Help - About, just to find that 
Firefox would hang. It would not even respond to a click on the close box 
anymore, I had to use kill commands.
After restarting, the problems disappeared all right.

I still think an update should not put Firefox into an unstable
situation like that. The update says "to complete the update, restart
Firefox"; it does not say "you must restart Firefox now or face random
crashes".

Further, since this seems to affect unrelated parts of the Chrome
framework, I fear that a future update could affect a large number of
users, in some very unpleasant way (how about 1% of installed user base
being unable to close FF, possibly because some mildly popular add-on is
damaged).

I suggest reopening the bug.
