[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

confirming. could this get fixed for 1.0.4, or at least the trunk?

Comment 3

[Daniel Veditz [:dveditz]]

This should be fixed on the trunk by bug 289940, though needs to be tested. If
it fixed it great because 289940 will be landing on the branch, too.

Confirming that bug 289940 fixed this on the trunk

Comment 5

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

Reassigning to dveditz.  Bug 289940 does not have blocking-aviary1.0.5+ set, so
just want to make sure we get that patch ready for the branch.  

Dan:  Should we flag that other bug or do you just want to submit a patch here
and get it checked in when we're ready?
