Latest builds r31363 on Windows, r31370 on Mac PPC don't open links in new
windows/tab when asked for; only on a particular website.


According to my preferences, a middle-click an a link the open it in a new tab.

Check the URL : http://www.clubic.com/forum/debat-sur-l-actu/
It's the forum of one of the most-visited IT-related french website. (4.3
million unique visitors/month)

When you middle-click on a link (i.e the thread title on the forum), it
functions as intended: the link is opened in a new tab.
When you middle-click on the small orange square left to a link (which brings
you to the first unread message in the thread), the link is opened in the very
same page.

IE, Firefox aren't affected...
