Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Introduced in [9328], altered in [12357] (for #11293).

 [attachment:21752.2.patch] removes fixed width from the dropdowns and adds
 `max-width`.

 Screenshot: [attachment:21752.2.after.png]. Tested in Firefox 15, Chrome
 21, IE 7, IE 8, Opera 12.

 IE 8 has two bugs:
 * If fixed width is not set, longer strings overlap with the arrow:
 [attachment:21752.2.ie8-bug-1.png].
 * Options that are wider than the select's set width are cropped:
 [attachment:21752.2.ie8-bug-2.png] (currently happens in trunk).

 The patch addresses both.
