Description Aaron Haviland 2010-07-02 12:13:04 UTC

Note: I'm no longer able to locate the website or mailing list thread where this was discovered, sorry. My google-fu fails me today.

Chrome uses a modified version libxml-2.6.32, and a modified libxslt. They're both linked with the -Duse_system_libxml flag. For some reason using the system libxml2 instead of the included one causes some websites to load improperly, as seen at the attached URL.

I see this specifically with Peacekeeper (as in bug http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=29542) failing to run test #2

Compiling without -Duse_system_libxml and the problem goes away.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the info, I've included the workaround in the latest dev channel bump and will monitor the upstream issue.
