wesj, any idea what's going on here? Also, do we even support installing Fennec on the SD card? I thought we've had issues with that in that past and decided it wasn't worth it.

This is standard Android. Widgets are explicity disabled from application installs on SD cards http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4747395/android-widget-from-sd-card http://www.technipages.com/fix-android-app-widgets-not-appearing-on-widget-list I don't think there's anything we should nor can do.
