bug 260821 fixed at about the same time, but not clear to me that it could have
affected your version

Reporter and voter, do you get same behavior on more recent build of FF?

This appears to be the same as bug 246158.  Thanks to Nukeador from the
bug-a-thon for finding this one!

Reporter, if you feel this was done in error, please REOPEN.
