Additional info: --- Additional comment from jdong on 2008-11-19 04:04:21 EDT --- This also always appears in Thunderbird-1.5.0.12-17.el4 - x86_64 (ja_JP) and ppc (zh_TW) on RHEL4U7.
I don't think this will be fixed for RHEL4, which support covers now only security and major bugs. Closing as WONTFIX
