I see this using build 2001112603 on W2K, -> OS All. 
This happens on pages that use <link REL="icon" HEF="..."> (like mozilla.org),
but not on pages that use a favicon (like mozillazine.org does, I assume).

Digging a little further, I found the following:
* If there is only an icon defined, it is shown in the url upon loading and
  disappears upon reload
  (see: http://www.stanford.edu/~andreasp/test/icon_only.html)
* If there is only an shorticon defined, it is shown in the url upon loading
  and disappears upon reload
  (see: http://www.stanford.edu/~andreasp/test/shorticon_only.html)
* If both icon and shorticon are defined, they are displayed upon loading
  and upon reloading
  (see: http://www.stanford.edu/~andreasp/test/icon_and_shorticon.html)

Using both icon and shorticon only seems to work when the "icon" link is not a
.ico file. That is, this disappears on reload:

<LINK rel="icon" href="X.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<LINK rel="shortcut icon" href="X.ico">

This does not:

<LINK rel="icon" href="X.png" type="image/png">
<LINK rel="shortcut icon" href="X.ico">

So I tried all combinations of png and ico for icon and shorticon. 

nd...web site icon not displayed
1x...displays once, disappears upon reloaad
ok...displayed even after reload

        \icon  none   png     ico   
shorticon\       
---------------------------------------------
none     |     nd     1x      1x
png      |     1x     1x      ok
ico      |     1x     ok      1x

So it seems that the web site icon is only displayed upon reload if "icon" and
"shorticon" use a different format.
