This is another one of those where the N6 browser isn't reading a pref
correctly. The color prefs are not removed during migration so they're still
there.  This is a browser bug.  Reassigning.

I have no idea why this ended up in Browser General.  Sounde like a profile
migration issue to me?!

dbragg, Browser-General is probably not the correct component for this bug
Browser-General: A "catch all" component for problems found when using the
Browser which do not fall into one of the current components. Example:
launch/exit crashes, features missing, etc. PLEASE NOTE!! Try to find a
component which is specific to your bug first - BEFORE assigning to this component!

Over to XPApps because if this isn't a migration issue th3en I don't know where
else it would go.

[Blake Ross]

Conrad, any idea who should get these migration issues?  Why would all but 
the color prefs be properly migrated (assuming they are)?  Cc'ing Marc, who 
implemented this.

[Simon Paquet [:sipaq]]

This bug is targeted at a Mac classic platform/OS, which is no longer supported
by mozilla.org. Please re-target it to another platform/OS if this bug applies
there as well or resolve this bug.

I will resolve this bug as WONTFIX in four weeks if no action has been taken.
