Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:42.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/42.0 Build ID: 20151005172933 Steps to reproduce: I upgraded from 41 to 42 beta and compiled/ran new build from git. Actual results: The bookmark toolbar does not seem to have proper UI functionality. The bookmarks on it do not have mouse over hover animations and the placing is not spaced correctly. there is no spacing between entries causing them to run into each other. It looks "flat". Expected results: the UI elements in the bookmark toolbar should act the same as the rest of the UI buttons/interface. there should be a 3d animation when hovering over the bookmarks like in the rest of the UI buttons. there should also be spacing between the entries so that they do not run into each other.

This may be a larger issue as beta builds for Thunderbird also display the same behavior with the interface buttons as noted in this report. It may be specific to Linux as the buttons are better under windows.

Can confirm. I can add that it was working fine in 42b1 with GTK3, the issue appeared in 42b2 when it seems that firefox switched back to using GTK2.
I can restore desired functionality by forcing use of gtk3 in the build by adding ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-gtk3 to my .mozconfig.
Fixed in Beta 5.
