Can confirm on theregister.co.uk. After visiting the scrollbar does not disappear.

confirm for theregister.co.uk, using 49941155e43eb520c43b02b55e0bbced2b657cf6

Happens to me on gmail as well, but I'm not sure if it's GTK scrollbars or HTML scrollbars. There must be some clever way to find out, maybe with some CSS injection...

To reproduce this bug add the css property "overflow:scroll" to the body of a page: <body style="scroll:overflow">.

That should say <body style="overflow:scroll">. This actually creates a horizonal non-functioning non-disapearing bar as well. Until this issue is fixed properly, adding the follow to your style.css should fix it.
body {
overflow: hidden; !important
}
However; it appears stylesheet_uri is not working right now so this does not seem to work.

This still happens. I think someone is working on this.

this is fixed in the experimental branch, but it breaks sometimes.
