(Core :: Web Painting, defect)

Description

[Brad Taylor]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021202
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021202

Operating System:  RedHat 8.0 Psyche (2.4.18-19.8.0) athlon with all the latest
updates
Attempting to scroll to the code section on
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fstartup.getcoded.net%2F (which
appears to be vaild XHTML 1.0 Strict, LMAO) results in a hardlock/segfault using
either the scrollbar (on right side), scrolling arrows or scroll wheel. 
Reproduced on three RH8.0 machines and a windows machine (no segfault).  

Mozilla version:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021202, build 2002120219

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mozilla
2. Browse to http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fstartup.getcoded.net%2F
3. Scroll past the code section or even browse to 
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fstartup.getcoded.net%2F#line-65
Actual Results:  
Hardlock/segfault.  Program can only be closed by a ps -auxf and a killall
mozilla-bin

Expected Results:  
Uh... Mozilla should scroll down like I asked it to, IMHO ;)

Machine 1 uses Mozilla 1.2.1 XFT for RH 8.0 with Modern theme.  Machine 2 uses
Galeon 1.2.7 with mozilla 1.2.1 XFT for RH8.  Machine 3 is essentially a clone
of Machine 2 (Mozilla 1.2.1 XFT for RH 8 - Modern Theme).  All Machines
segfaulted upon scrolling (slow or fast, sporadic, etc)
