In the expanded Wikimedia template listing languages for translation on the One Laptop Per Child Wiki, hovering with the mouse over the language list results in an unstable display in Firefox 3 beta 5, alternately rendering LTR and RTL too fast to read. 

The offending entry has been removed from the page.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. If we can get the code for the page with the problem, just open it.

Actual Results:  
Text flickers between two renderings.

Expected Results:  
Rendered once, and displayed the result.
This is probably the same as bug 425338, which was fixed after Firefox 3 Beta 5.  Please retest in a nightly to make sure.
