why JS_AddValueRoot() leads to "losing efficacy" of GC

Here's my js code:

     window.onload = function () {
       ...
       CarObject.addCallback("StringEvent", function(arg1, arg2){
         alert(arg2);
       });
       ...
     }

CarObject is a js variable, it maps to a C++ object internally, here I add a callback to the CarObject. as you see, the callback function is not a global function, so the callback function will be freed by GC. We use JS_AddValueRoot() which will add the callback function to GC's root set, this means the callback function(JSFunction *) will be protected from GC. but I found that it caught GC won't work, many object will be leaked when firefox exit.

thanks philipp, I'm using source code of fennec21.0, I'm not sure whether it will occur on the lasted version. The problem(GC losing effective, there will be many leads when fennec exit.) may not be caught by JS_AddValueRoot(), maybe it's our code's problem. But I will try your suggestion, put it to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
