Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:20.0) Gecko/20121207 Firefox/20.0

Using latest-birch I restarted the browser and the tabs from last time were restored despite the "show my home page" setting.

Steps:
1. Run latest birch nightly and go to the preferences and set "when nightly starts" to "show my home page"
2. Open a few tabs in the window.
3. Open another window in PB mode using command-shift-p
4. Open a few tabs in that PB window
5. In the first window go to http://ted.mielczarek.org/mozilla/crashme.html and install the extension. Restart when prompted

Expected: When the application restarts I should get an empty window.[1]

Actual: The first window with a set of tabs comes up. 

1. Is this intended in the case of restarting due to add-on installations? Filing just in case.

Hmm, I don't think that this has changed with per-window private browsing.  Try running the same steps in a regular Nightly outside of PB mode, and I believe you will observe the same (the session being restored.)
