With the 2001012504 build on W2k, it still worked. So the regression must have
happened after that date - or it is a Linux only problem.

just tried it in W2K build 2001020204 and saw the same problem. Marking OS as all

Confirming that it worked in build 2001012504 on WinNT and fails with 2001020204
on WinNT. Original report says $nbsp; but it should be   and in fact is
  in testcase.
