Details

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16brfw i686; en-US; 0.7) Gecko/20010105
BuildID:    2001010517

The back button on mozilla 0.7 will remain unselectable, if the first page
loaded contains frames, while browsing the same site. It will become selectabe
when the top-level frameset page (e.g. the URL shown in the Location bar)
changes. If a page has been loaded and the back button is selectable, this bug
does not occur.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1a) set as homepage an URL with frames
    or
1b) "Open in new window..." an URL that points to a site with frames
2) open a new Navigator window.
3) Select any link that changes an element in the frameset while
   staying within the site.

Actual Results:  The back button remains unselectable, as if this is the first
page in the history.

Expected Results:  The back button should become selectable.

If the document is not the first one and the back button is selectable, this bug
does not occur and back and forwadr work as expected.
Dupe of bug 56062, and probably related to bug 45227.
