Assigning to myself for further investigation. Thanks for isolating the regression!

Comment 6

[Jonathan Kew [:jfkthame]]

A workaround until this gets fixed is to zoom the page (Ctl-+ or Ctl-=); this should make the missing text appear.

Comment 7

[Jonathan Kew [:jfkthame]]

Or go to about:config and set gfx.downloadable_fonts.fallback_delay to zero.

Could also initialize with:
  PRBool modified = mLoaders.Count() > 0;

r=dbaron either way

I've seen this bug too, on <http://www.deredactie.be/cm/vrtnieuws> (the title of each news-item disappeared when the page was refreshed). A build of 12 hours ago (this morning) still had the bug, the current top-of-the-tree doesn't anymore.

Nominating for mozilla-beta along with bug 650639, as this fixes a bad regression from the patch there.

Cancelling my approval-beta request as I don't believe this applies there after all (see bug 650639#c20).
