Well, in the past I have just moved the old profile out of the way and
re-added things in and skipped the last thing I added that messed it
up. This is pretty anoying however.
The last time this happened to me, I found 2 (as far as I can tell
undocumented) command line arguments that help out:
-safe-mode
and
-no-extensions
