9.51: fix for Gmail 2.0 interface getting stuck.

[Alan Hoyle <alanh@xxxxxxx>]

Hey all,

I'm running Opera 9.51 on Ubuntu 8.04.  I was having trouble with
GMail becoming non-responsive and displaying a "Still Working..." note
at the top of the screen.  I was not having this problem on my Mac or
several PC's running O9.51 or newer.

I believe this is because of the combination of two things:

1.  Google recently made the new GMail 2.0 interface the default for
Opera.

2.  In an attempt to force the new GMail interface, I'd use the "Mask
as Firefox" site preference.  

After reverting back to "Identify as Opera," the problem appears to be
gone.  Changing back and forth causes the problem to appear and
disappear.  

If anyone else is seeing the same behavior, try making that change.

To be completely clear:  
    "Ident as Opera" = GMail works.  
    "Mask as FF" = Gmail becomes unresponsive.
