Like the following comments, if userChrome.css is customized, this problem will
not be generated.

I put * { font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; } in my user chrome. The problem did not
go away.

Comment 5

I have added the following entries.
* { font-family: "Lucida Grande", sans-serif !important; }

Modifying the userChrome.css as you suggested does work. But it should be more
refined and work out of the box.

Attachment: The example of a problem at the time of installing a language pack

When a language pack is installed, a display is confused further.
It is a problem that a display is confused only by changing language.

version 1.0RC2 20041103 : this problem is visible only in :
 - Privacy/Cookies
 - Privacy/Download Manager History
 - Privacy/Cache
but the Cookies one is the most problematic because the 
right buttons completely disappear. Some <br> in the text
may shorter the width of the sheet and voila.

This has nothing to do with bug 233781.
Why the userChrome.css in comment 5 works is that it increases
the width of the pane.
Removing dependency.

I was referring to the February 2005 new prefs landing on the trunk

filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
