Thanks very much for the testcase -- this is an old regression, AFAICT. 
  I've just now filed bug 252892 
(http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=252892) and will patch it 
shortly.  You should be able to apply the patch, or another patch for 
the RC6a sources that I'll put in the bug if necessary, to your 1.5 RC6a 
source files.
