Mailboxes are crowded with many empty popstate-xx.dat folders. (Nov 2018, Robert reports no longer seeing this issue)

Hi,

I deleted the files panacea.dat and fordertree.json, and then the popstate-xx.dat files, while Thunderbird was closed, but the folders keep reappearing in the mailboxes.

Can I do something to prevent them from appearing?

To test if bug 239455's checkin is involved, the nightly builds to be tested are... https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/nightly/2013/09/2013-09-05-04-59-33-comm-central/ (should work) and https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/nightly/2013/09/2013-09-11-03-03-41-comm-central/ (should fail). (the other nightly builds adjacent to 2013-09-09 are unfortunately broken)
