WebKit calls these methods getShaderi and getProgrami, which closely match the original GL calls of getShaderiv and getProgramiv. Firefox, however, uses getShaderParameter and getProgramParameter, which are quite different.
For the sake of comparability (and readability), it's probably best to switch to the WebKit convention.

Reproducible: Always




Hacky workaround:
function fixupGL(gl) {
    if (!gl.getShaderi) {
        gl.getShaderi = gl.getShaderParameter;
    }
    if (!gl.getProgrami) {
        gl.getProgrami = gl.getProgramParameter;
    }
}

Whoops - looks like get*Parameter is actually the new way - ignore me - sorry! Still getting used to all this :)
