198519 - [CTL-Thai] Mozilla crashes on text selection, if compiled with --enable-ctl

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 184599

(Core :: Layout: Text and Fonts, defect)

Description

[Andrey ``Bass'' Shcheglov]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030321
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030321

If you try to select text with your mouse (or press F7 and do the same with the
keyboard), Mozilla terminates abnormally.

However, doubleclicking a word to select it or pressing Ctrl+A doesn't lead to a
crash. TypeAhead works well, too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile Mozilla with --enable-ctl option.
2. Run Mozilla.
3. Try to select some text.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla crashes.

Expected Results:  
The text should become selected (inversed).

OS: Red Hat Linux 8.0/2.4.20
gcc-3.2
gtk-2.2 (option --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 passed to the configure script)

I suspect this is a duplicate of

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=184599

At least, I experienced the same behaviour also on RedHat 8.0 and applying the
patch from 184599 solved it for me.

Yes, this is a dup of 184599
