So it was fixed with Wine-Gecko 2.47.1 release, part of Wine 5.0-rc1 release.

There is no Wine-Gecko product version by design (reserved for Wine releases)
hence one needs to do some work to keep track of Wine-Gecko -> Wine release
integration mappings.

In this case it was most likely Wine 1.5-ish release (guessed from the report
date).

2013-01-18 21:44:53 +0100  (tag: wine-1.5.22) Release 1.5.22.
2013-01-04 21:45:01 +0100  (tag: wine-1.5.21) Release 1.5.21.

====

Not specifically targeting this bug but a more general observation for
'Wine-Gecko' product bug reports...

https://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=STAGED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=NEEDINFO&bug_status=RESOLVED&bug_status=CLOSED&list_id=716552&product=Wine-gecko&query_format=advanced

I'm ok with bugs related to packaging issues and support for other platforms
etc. but various other bugs are simply misplaced and buried. I never look at
these because they are automatically filtered out by product (I have certain
default filters).

If bugs are reported with 'Wine-Gecko' product I propose to always create a
pair of bugs: one against the component 'Wine-Gecko' (= internal tracking) and
another one for the component integration (upgrade) in Wine release -> product
'Wine'.

The one against Wine product is the important one. It appears in official
release notes = visible to end users.
