Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

Reproducible on l10n Nightly 32.0a1 builds:
* platforms: Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit [1] and Mac OS X 10.9.2 [2],
* locales: zh-CN, ko.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch the zh-CN (chinese-simplified) or ko (korean) l10n Nightly 32.0a1 build.
2. From Menu panel > Options > Advanced > Network > Connection > Parameters configure an invalid proxy
3. Enable "Use this proxy server for all protocols" then click OK.
4. Access a random URL.
5. Check how each character from the header is displayed.

Expected result:
The header's characters are completely displayed using a heavy font-weight.

Actual result:
Some of the header's characters display thicker lines than other ones, indicating a difference in terms of font-weight.

Additional information:
* this issue is not a regression, as implementation Bug 982347 landed recently, on 2014-05-09.
* I've also attached a few screenshots depicting the issue on Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit
