seeing this as well in Gecko/20031225 Firebird/0.7+. it stops responding on
entering any word into the adressbar and hitting return.

It's weird the bug is still unconfirmed. Still see the problem in current trunk
build.

Interesting point is that when I enter a multi-word search term, it doesn't hang
and works, e.g.:

"mozilla": HANGS
"mozilla firedbird": WORKS

It seems that the latest patch of bug 209699 caused this regression. I backed
out the patch for docshell/base/nsWebShell.cpp and it worked fine. Not sure what
should be done.

RCS file: /cvsroot/mozilla/docshell/base/nsWebShell.cpp,v

-          nsAutoString keywordSpec; keywordSpec.AssignWithConversion("keyword:");
-          keywordSpec.Append(NS_ConvertUTF8toUCS2(host));
-
-          NS_NewURI(getter_AddRefs(newURI), keywordSpec, nsnull);
+          NS_NewURI(getter_AddRefs(newURI),
+                    NS_LITERAL_CSTRING("keyword:") + host, nsnull);
