Filter in about:config seems has some mistakes, showing something that is unrelated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to about:config
2.type "jit" in the Filter
3.see the result
Actual Results:  
Showing something that is unrelated, like "browser.cache.disk.capacity",  "browser.cache.offline.capacity" ....

Expected Results:  
Just show the records that have the characters "jit"
Version: unspecified → Trunk
Searching for 'jit' in the 'filter box' used to return the two (2)entires for JIT, Chrome & Content.

Oh, sorry, it should be when the "javascript.options.jit.content=true"

"jit", "bit", "kit" and "cit" get the same results, but "lit" returns a different subset of the "it" results. "cat" same as "bat", but not "lat". "bat" != "bit". 

Etc.

This is OK in the 2/10/09 build 
Broken in the 2/11/09 build
I guess this is not affecting Linux. Typing "jit" in the filter box just shows me the two jit entries and not more.

Adding TM to title - since its TraceMonkey related. 

Turning 'off' JIT.content - in the 2/11 build does show the proper return when filtering for 'jit'

Please request blocking; also mark as major

I can't see them shipping with this.
There was a TM->M-C merge on the 10th...Too many for me to even begin to guess.
WFM in a super-recent TM build with the default prefs of content=true/chrome=false; suggest a merge before we make too much effort at tracking down an exact regression point.
