On my old, slow Windows PC I can reproduce a problem when switching between tabs:

If I switch to a tab which page has a title that is to long for the tab, I can
see for a short moment that the text with the title overlaps the tab. A short
time later the text is correctly cut.

I see this as "minor" bug.

Please have a look at the attached screenshots.

(Please not that I have found this bug with a latest-trunk nightly under Windows
95. But I guess it exists also on other operating systems and Firefox-versions.)

Reproducible: Always

Confirmed.

I can't see the bug, using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/2004-08-09
Firefox/0.9.1+
I an see the bug, using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/2004-08-10
Firefox/0.9.1+

At the moment whe the title overlap happens, the favicons of all the tabs aren't
there anymore. You can see this also with the attached screenshots.

I'm pretty sure I've seen this problem before that date, but I do not know
specifically when.

I've backed out the patch for bug 230170 in my debug build and then the bug
seemed to be gone. Then, after I reapplied the patch, the bug seemed to reappear
again.

So I'm betting the problem is that something is forcing a repaint before the new
styles have been applied.... That would likely be fixed by bug 238493.

Ok, not sure if this is useful, but only backing out the stuff (and putting the
old stuff back in) in nsCSSFrameConstructor::AttributeChanged of the patch for
bug 230170 seems also not to trigger the bug.

Please retest in a build from today or later?

I actually haven't seen this for a few days, if not a few weeks...

Well, fwiw, I could see it in yesterday's build, but not in today's build.
