According to a March 2010 comment on a bug*:

CSS lengths in Gecko are limited to at most (1<<30)-1 app units, with 1<<30 treated as an infinite value. App units are 1/60 of a CSS pixel. Lengths larger than that effectively overflow the integer datatype used to store lengths. ((1<<30)-1)/60 == 17895697 which is the maximum CSS length, in CSS px, that we support, effectively.

So height reverts to auto.
