I decide to try to reinstall FF.  I started the install file that I d/l this morning and let it run.  At the end of installation it asked to restart FF while this morning it wanted a reboot (which I did).  

I closed the install window and launched FF the normal way.

My search engine list was restored so that the problem resolved itself.

The only differences are (1)his morning I used user options mode and (2) the 'upgrade' was from 22 to 21 rather than 21 to 22.

Unable to reproduce the initial issue. The search engines list is kept after upgrading from 21 to 22, Win 7 x64.
