Details

This appears to be the same as or very similar to bug 21611 which is marked "verified fixed". On Mozilla M18 build (2000101015 Linux) go to any page which refreshes via http-equiv refresh and wait through several refresh periods. The URL above refreshes every 45 seconds, so is a good one. Click on the drop-down browser back history button and see that the page has added itself to the history every time it refreshes. This might not be quite so bad if each entry in the history were actually a snapshot at the time that the refresh occurred, but that is not the case -- selecting any of the entries simply reloads the page at the current time. If this was truly fixed back in April, it appears to have come back. It also occurs in the M17 build.
