Bug#350608: About box has spurious scrollbar

[Ian Jackson]

Package: firefox
Version: 1.5.dfsg-4

Selecting  Help / About Firefox  produces an About dialogue box which
has a spurious scrollbar next to the version info.  For reasons I
don't understand (due to my limited knowledge of XUL) the size of this
is fixed.

In Ubuntu we work around this with the patch you find below.  There
may be a better solution.
