When in doubt throw it out.

Like the man said they really don't cost that much.

I agree. It's not worth trying to figure out why it's behaving this
way. And I'd
have to disagree with those that say it's no different than the
millions of other
non GFCI outlets. This one is in a bathroom, which depending on when
the
work was done and local codes, may very well be required by code.
Second,
it's marked as a GFCI. Someone seeing that is more likely to believe
it offers
GFCI protection when using it. For example, someone going to work
outside
with an extension cord would be plugging it into a GFCI protected
outlet, expecting
it to actually be one and work.
