113376 - extra characters appear in the titlebar

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 116616

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[jdalbec]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.6) Gecko/20011120
BuildID:    2001112012

For example, the title bar of the current window reads "Bugzilla Helper -
Mozilla {Build ID: 2001112012}012}".  It looks like a trailing '\0' is not being
copied correctly or a length is not being correctly specified.  I just created
some new windows and the trailing garbage was "!", then "Q", then "1".  My home
page is www.debian.org.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install 0.9.6 milestone build.
2. Run "mozilla" as user a few times.
3. Run "mozilla" as root (should have done that first).
Note: root's .mozilla is from a previous 0.9.2 milestone install.
4. Run "mozilla" as user a few times.
5. Rename "~/.mozilla"
6. Run "mozilla" as user to re-migrate .netscape profile.



Actual Results:  At each stage in this process I would get garbage characters in
the title bar on random web pages.  It seemed more likely to occur when a new
window was created.

Expected Results:  The titlebar should not have extra characters after the build ID.

Debian 2.2r4, kernel 2.4.12, KDE 2.1.2, AMD K6/MMX

[e-mail]: Is this still an issue, with 0.9.7 or a nightly from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/ ?

I re-reported it for 0.9.7 because I couldn't find this bug and I thought it had 
been deleted.  You really should make 'UNCONFIRMED' part of the 
defaults on the query page.
