This just means that the bug that is being triggered off for some is
cross-platform. It could be CPU dependent (the JIT takes different
routes depending on the capabilites of the processor, things like SSE2),
video dependent or even show up with a fast connection (race condition).
I know on my old Core2Duo with a ATI Rage AGP video card and dial-up I
don't see the 100% CPU usage, at least on FF 10.4esrpre or the
equivalent SeaMonkey.
