(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Ian Clarke]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/0.9.1+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/0.9.1+

The first or second time I switch between two tabs by clicking on the tab, the
page doesn't do a redraw until I scroll the page - yet the highlighted tab
changes to the one I clicked on.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start FireFox
2. View a page, open up a new tab and view another page in that tab
3. Click on an unselected tab

Actual Results:  
The clicked tab is now highlighted but the old tab's page is still displayed
until the page is scrolled.

Expected Results:  
The page should change to the appropriate tab.

Confirming this bug as another reporter has raised the same issue. Note that the
second report was against the suite rather than firefox itself, so this appears
to be in the common code between the two of them.
