 This appears to work also.
 
 The only hitch I've encountered is that firefox-24.0 (like firefox-22)
 won't honor the "show my windows and tabs from last time" preference.
 It always behaves as if "show my home page" is selected.
 
 Under i386-5.2_STABLE, I was able to convince it to restore tabs,
 but under 6.1_STABLE (i386 or amd64) it will not restore tabs.
 
 firefox-23.0.1nb1 appeared to restore windows and tabs without problems.
 I'm in the process of building firefox-23.0.1nb1 so I can flip back and
 forth to test my casual observations.
 
 In case it's an interation with add-ons, I have NoScript, AdBlockPlus,
 and OpenInBrowser installed.  Also using multimedia/mplayer-plugin and
 multimedia/gnash.
 
 My home directory resides on a file server accessed by NFS/amd, so 5.2
 and 6.1 i386 binaries see the exact same configuration files, etc.,
 although I'm careful to not have firefox running as me on each
 simultaneously.
