retornam and/or teoli, can you try to reproduce this error on stage9? The error email's request properties indicate the user starts at https://developer-stage9.mozilla.org/fr/Nouveaut%C3%A9s+dans+JavaScript+1.8 and goes to the login page - either thru the sign in link in header or footer, or thru the edit or watch buttons.

Tried reproducing this, but couldn't. Also, it looks like the line that should be problematic does the right thing - so maybe we already fixed this?

Bumping this to post-July for further investigation, just in case.
