I entered a bug about the div not scrolling correctly, they mentioned it was
fixed in Deer Park Alpha. So I Downloaded it, and sure enough, it was fixed! But
to the right of the scroll bar it shows an extra space for no reason.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://guitartabrequest.com/tab/pinkfloyd/thewallpartii/
2. Look at main/TAB div
3. Notice that the bounding image on the right is blown out due to the new browser.

Actual Results:  
<div id="content"></div> has a margin to the right in the new browser.

Expected Results:  
No margin to the right (I specified margin: 0;).
While comparing to older FF and IE, I noticed that Deer Park puts the scrollbar
on the outside instead of the inside. Although, there is more space than just
the extra scrollbar move.
what does the misplacement of the scrollbar have to do with smooth scrolling ?
I'm just giving you a little backstory on my situation. I was looking for a
solution for smooth scrolling, found deer park, and found that with this
solution, was a bug. So, they told me to post a seperate report. I guess that
when they addressed the scrolling issue, this bug popped up. So I made a new bug
report and told you guys the whole story.
this is a recent regression and a dupe (2 weeks old or so).
the original was filed for a gamesite where the scrollbar added space too
If I could only find it...

if you can't find it, I don't feel so bad about me not finding it in my search.
