Details

Based on comments in 465673, I searched this question among 3.6 users on the forum, and found 3 instances in the past three weeks.

The fix is to use about:config to set browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to false.

I'll write the article. The issues that need to be resolved:
- Is this monkeying around with Firefox?
- What's the best name for the article?
Depends on: 465673
ready for review

Again, I'd like to get everyone's take on whether or not this violates the monkeying around section of KB policy:

Resolution: --- → FIXED
Keep this article around in case we get a flood of complaints.

Otherwise, I think "Methods of tweaking Firefox, such as about:config, user.js, userChrome.css, and userContent.css are not recommended for average users. Use of these tools is only allowed in troubleshooting articles" is pretty clear.
Once again, I filed a dupe of a bug I already filed. :-)
Resolution: FIXED → DUPLICATE
After doing some serious browsing through bugs, I finally found this resolution. THANKS for it, the new feature was horrible and annoying.

Also, tabs opening at the end of the bar should be the DEFAULT option.
