Noticed when fixing bug 283697.

bug 349098 fixed this when animateFadeIn is set to false.

To reproduce this I added text to the checkbox labels since my locale's text is not long enough to wrap. As can be seen in the screenshots in bug 349098 some locales have long enough text to cause the checkbox label to wrap.

I also got tis problem, when i developing options window for my extension (TB 2.0.0.6 on WinXP). 

Fix is easy:

In toolbox Xul.css is:

prefpane > .content-box {
  overflow: hidden;
}

I override it in my extension css by:

prefpane > .content-box {
  overflow: -moz-hidden-unscrollable;
}

and it fixes error for me.
