The interesting thing is that I never once saw this happen in any Mozilla
tests, but yesterday I mentioned this saga to a non-MIT friend and his
immediate response was, "You're using Mozilla? Have you gotten any
complaints about images not displaying yet?" And, presto ....
Unfortunately we won't be able to go to 1.1 immediately - it's too shaky -
but let's see if 1.01, which will replace 1.0 sometime in the next two
days, does any good.
Barring that, I don't think there's another fix.
