Subject: mozilla-firefox: possible race condition between firefox and import wizard

Package: mozilla-firefox
Version: 1.0.2-3
Followup-For: Bug #301479

This may be a race condition between firefox and the import wizard, when
it's run for the first time.

I've found that simply running 'strace firefox' seems to change the timing
enough for the import wizard to appear. After that, running firefox
by itself appears to work.
