For text blocks that are just whitespace and stripFrontSpaces=true, when checking if the block should be considered for breaking, beginWS and endWS are used, but are uninitialized (RenderBlock.cpp:3741). They don't get initialized in RenderText::trimmedPrefWidths() since it returns early. I'm not sure if such blocks should be considered for breaking, so I don't know what values to initialize beginWS and endWS to.

Confirming. This is a regression from newly-added code.

Created attachment 16009 [details] All-whitespace text test case I think the code in RenderBlock::calcInlinePrefWidths is wrong anyway as demonstrated by this test case.
