Comment 4 for bug 401406

I am setting this to Critical because this appears to be a major regression in (3.98.2+debian-0ubuntu1) that is about to be shipped in 9.10 as compared to (3.98-0.0) that was shipped in 9.04 and 8.10. If someone feels that is not really criticial, please feel free to change it (or let me know and I'll change it).
