Looks like a DOM omission.
I see 'Document Object Model' in the mozilla modules page, but not in the
components list. Does the bugsplat modules list need a revision?

The problem exists because of the unqualified reference to "location". It should
work with "window.location". Either way, it's still a valid compatibility bug.

Both IE and Communicator work with an unqualified "location". Is there a
standard for the DOM which specifies (or not) the implicit "with (window)"?

The bug is just a result of the way we implemented window.location. In other
cases, the implict scope for unqualified references is the window.

Bug is verified.
If we try this code, it shows that location object could be found.
code:
<html>
<head>
<title>dfhg</title>
</head>
<body >
<script>
<!--
if (location.search){
document.location.replace("http://www.yahoo.com")}
else{
document.location.replace("http://www.hotmail.com")}
//-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
So marking this bug as verified.

retired.
