User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040331 Firefox/0.8.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040331 Firefox/0.8.0+

Help->About Mozilla Firefox has two problems:

1.  The exact build ID is not shown, just "Firefox 0.8+".  There does not
    appear to be any way to find out the exact build ID being used.

2.  The last displayed line of text is partially cut off.  It is unclear
    whether there are additional (completely invisible) lines which are
    cut off [maybe they show the build ID???]

    I will attach a screen-shot showing the cut-off-text problem.

My setup:
SuSE 9.0 + kernel 2.6.3
XFree86 Version 4.3.0.1
KDE (3.1, I think) with default KDE window manager

Firefix is using the "Firefox(default)" theme.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Start firefox
2.  Help->About

Actual Results:  
See screen shot

Expected Results:  
All text should be displayed, without cut-off characters.
The exact build-ID should be included.  IMO "0.8+" isn't very useful.
