Is this bug Mac only as the OS field indicates?

On Linux all I see is:

Graphics

Adapter Description  NVIDIA Corporation -- GeForce 8400 GS/PCI SSE2Driver Version3.3.0 NVIDIA 280.13
WebGL Renderer  NVIDIA Corporation -- GeForce 8400 GS/PCI/SSE2 -- 3.3.0 NVIDIA 280.13
GPU Accelerated Windows  0/1

which gives no indication of why GPU Accelerated Windows is 0/1.

That is true for me too (with ATI card), but I am not sure it belong into this bug.

Actually I know, layers (accelerated windows) are not enabled on Linux for any cards (can be forced with about:config pref). But it should be written in about:support. I think there is infrastructure for showing "feature not supported on this OS".
