Browse to a few URL's. Press little down arrow on back button in either skin -- 
no drop down. Same with Forward button.

Not sure if history is broken somehow, or if it's just a chrome issue. I put the 
component as history since it's unlikely that both packages have the same chrome 
bug.

I see the same problem.  Button history dropdown lists are not there.
I think danm removed a little of this code yesterday to try and fix a crasher.
Can it be put back in?

Yes, danm removed some code the back/forward button history and Go menu depend 
on.

I'm putting the finishing touch on a fix for this.

It is now over two weeks later, and this bug is still in the dailiy builds.
(2000082404).
actually, i haven't seen this in quite a while now. VERIFIED Fixed with the following smattering of builds (just to be reallly sure)

2000082308 Win98
2000082508 Linux RedHat 6.1
2000082108 MacOS 8.5.1
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
My mistake. When I unzip the dailies on my machine, I only clean out the EXE and
DLL files. Apparently some other file in the directory was not being
over-written from the new daily build, and was preserving the broken behaviour.
After cleaning my installation more thoroughly, it is working properly.
Mass removing self from CC list.
Now I feel sumb because I have to add back. Sorry for the spam.
