I now have some additional information. This error only occurs when using Firefox (I have version 13.0.1 on Windows) with Russian set as the preferred language in Firefox settings (I've also tested with English as preferred language and did't get this error).
It doesn't occur when using any other browsers that I've tested (Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera).
