Description

It seems to be returning char keywords in files whose names include gfxTextRun...

the logic that's applied is perhaps a bit too fuzzy.

What it does is treats 'GetChar' as 'GetChar' or 'char' because in .js or .idl it could be 'GetChar' or 'char'. It should probably only apply that heuristic to .js/.idl/... instead of everything.

Yes, I guess that it makes sense for it to apply that logic only two files which use the literal names defined in the IDL.

I suppose this is the same bug:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/ident?i=GetColCount
...
Defined as a variable in:
    editor/libeditor/html/nsTableEditor.cpp (View Hg log or Hg annotations)
        line 465 -- PRInt32 rowCount, colCount, rowIndex;
... and a lot of other lines I didn't want to see ...

Is anyone working on fixing MXR bugs these days?

mxr is gone, mass closing.
https://searchfox.org/ is a much better alternative.
