Navigator.appName property produce "Netscape" instead of "Mozilla"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.main menu : Debug > Verification > Javascript

3.click on 'appName' test case

Actual Results:  appName > "Netscape"

Expected Results:  appName > "Mozilla"

I experience this bug with both win98 and win2000pro.
Other bug appear (2 times per mozilla window opening), an error message in
javascript console :

  "Error: redeclaration of const hide
   Source file : chrome://wallet/content/walletOverlay.js"

But I don't know if both bugs are linked ...
