From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.5+) Gecko/20011024
BuildID:    20011024

The submitted page contains a malformed meta tag which crashes mozilla 20011024
on linux (but not 0.9.5).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.infosys.tuwien.ac.at
2.
3.

Actual Results:  Mozilla crashes

Expected Results:  It should display the page

A very simple testcase:

<HTML>
<META :->
</HTML>

I'm aware this is not valid html, but it certainly shouldn't crash mozilla. Plus
it is from a real-world-webpage ...
dup of bug 106527?
Daniel, please retest with an Oct 25 build.  If this crash is gone, this is a
duplicate of bug 106527
Yes, the crash is gone in the latest build.
Marking WFM per reporter's comment ("Yes, the crash is gone in the latest build").
