Missing ref count initialization in the nsLocale constructor. I will check this in after M3. Index: nsLocale.cpp =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/mozilla/intl/locale/src/nsLocale.cpp,v retrieving revision 1.1 diff -c -r1.1 nsLocale.cpp *** nsLocale.cpp 1999/01/28 23:27:46 1.1 --- nsLocale.cpp 1999/03/17 00:11:43 *************** *** 42,47 **** --- 42,48 ---- PRUint32 i; nsString* key, *value; + NS_INIT_REFCNT(); fHashtable = PL_NewHashTable(LOCALE_HASH_SIZE,&nsLocale::Hash_HashFunction, &nsLocale::Hash_CompareNSString,&nsLocale::Hash_CompareNSString,NULL,NULL);

Checked in the fix. Currently nobody is using nsLocale other than self test program. No verification is possible.

No verification will be attempted for M4.

This has been in the product long enough and for thread pane headers, sorting seems to be working as intended. I'm going to mark this verified as fixed based on that.
