Not critical for beta2

Comment 2

[Doug Turner (:dougt)]

Warren, I am reassigning some bugs which you own over to me (dougt).  If you 
think that you will have time to address them please reassign them back to 
yourself.  This reassignment was suggested by choffman.

qa to me.

Comment 4

[Darin Fisher]

hmm.. this might be fixed.

revision 1.17 by brendan has this CVS comment:

- nsBufferedStream::Seek wasn't flushing the buffer when seeking backward
  within the buffer, but it must, because mCursor bounds the amount to write
  if the buffer contains the end of file.

which suggests that Seek works now for output streams.

resolving WORKSFORME ... brendan: please reopen if i'm mistaken.  thx!

Yes, this was fixed when I did the original XUL JS script FastLoad work, before
1.0 released.
