To be more precise, patch 41 is causing the problem.
There's apparently an old version of the patch being used in the package that has a known bug. Chris is going to look at it.
Somehow I imported the old version of that patch to mozilla. Fixed in 1.7.5-3, available tomorrow from the usuall places.
