I tried to find a previous report of this issue but without success - confirming this report then. This is a trunk regression, Firefox 3.6.11 works fine.

Do we know when this has been started?

I was about to find the regression window. The bug report I got also mentions Beta 6 so it probably didn't start too long ago.

This regressed between 2010-08-27 and 2010-08-28: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=e1d55bbd1d1d&tochange=6e3f6d18c124

Not really sure which one of these checkins is responsible, could be a number of them.

Timothy, Robert, I see a number of your patches in that period which might be related, any idea?
