When I try to add either of these RSS feeds to the Thunderbird aggregator, "Verifying RSS feed..." is shown and does not go away.

http://rss.cbc.ca/lineup/topstories.xml

When I cancel subscription, there is a new RSS folder that I cannot delete. For reference, here are some feeds that do work:

http://www.projectcensored.org/feed/
http://www.democracynow.org/democracynow.rss
http://indymedia.org/en/main-features.rss
http://feeds.feedburner.com/Engrishdotcom

This is an upstream report from http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mozilla-thunderbird/+bug/256086 .

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to subscribe to either of the aforementioned feeds.
2. Watch it fail.
