Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008060900 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008060900 Firefox/3.0

when typing about:about in address bar it gives the following error:
jar:file:///usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/chrome/toolkit.jar!/content/global/aboutAbout.html and tells you that it cannot be located (File not Found).

but should give something more like:
"the URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."

This happens on Ubuntu Firefox-3 builds RC1 and RC2 as well as RC2 upstream package when ran using ./firefox from inside the extracted tarball

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Enter about:about in address bar
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Gives the following error
jar:file:///usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/chrome/toolkit.jar!/content/global/aboutAbout.html and tells you that it cannot be located (File not Found).

Expected Results:  
It should produce the same result as about:foobar does or it should give a listing of all about: URIs
