history does not clean up correctly, back button does not work

steps reproduce bug always
1. go to mozilla.org

The popup that is brought up, when you click on a name in the guilty list
creates another entry for  tinderbox. (see the go menu, when the popup is still
there. You will see 2 entries for tinderbox). While going back after looking at
the checkin details, session history  finds that the current page is the same as
the one to go to and does nothing. Not sure what tbox uses and why it creates
another entry for the popup.  looking...

is bug 126826 related to this?

Jake
FWIW, with 1.0 under win32, all of my "Back" functionality has stopped as of
today 6/10/2002.  I cannot go to any site, click a link, then go back via the
Back button, "Back" on the context menu (right click), nor via the Go menu up
top.  This happened both at work and at home, totally separate installations of
Mozilla 1.0 under win32.
Ditto for build 2002053012 under Win2000 and Win98. I just installed both. Back
button is grayed-out. Only way to go back is to find the page under the Go menu.
Jeff and Matt, are either of you working with old profiles?  Can you try 
creating a brand new profile and see if you get the same behavior?

Jake
See bug 126826 as listed by jake, It still happens from the start even after
using a clean profile created with Profile Manager.
And I've discovered a workaround to get the buttons to appear.  (See comment 43)
(Should one of these be listed as a duplicate?)

Don't be fooled by bug 126826; this here is about a NOT GREYED-OUT back
button which does not work. This has something to do with wrong history
cleanup, not bad button functionality. So both bugs are clearely distinct!
Summary: back button does not work → back button does not work on tinderbox when using the popup menu on the guilty ones.
This is the same problem as 148794. Session History needs to be aware of page
loads on iframes.
