56642 - JS error for each space typed; can't scroll with spacebar

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 53896

For each space i type right here, i get a JS error to console:

JavaScript error:
 line 33: missing } in compound statement

The error doesn't appear if i *paste* lines with space's in, only when i key
them in.

Same here with CVS build as of yesterday. Additional datapoints: typing the
space for scrolling is affected too, so scrolling needs to be done with PageDown
key. Tasks->Tools->JS Console
does not tell the file name, just the line 33, column 5.

I see this on my branch builds from today (Mac and Linux).

The serious bug here seems to be that I can't use the spacebar to scroll.

Cc'ing some xptoolkit people.  I get the impression that some keybinding changes
went in recently (I've been hearing about other regressions) and wonder whether
this might be related?
