When the current tab (or window) contains a .pdf page, a new tab can't be opened
using the keys CTRL-T  (it can be opened only using the menu
File->New->Navigator Tab)... this doesn't happen when the page is NOT a pdf.

Reproducible: Always

1. open a new instance of mozilla
2. load a URL pointing to a pdf file, for example
http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf
3. once loaded, press CTRL-T : a new tab will NOT be opened (it doesn't happen
if current tab contains a page which is not a pdf)

4. now clicking on "File->New->Navigator Tab" instead, it works fine and a new
tab is correctly opened... after done this the bug above mentioned "disappear"
and new tabs can be opened again using CTRL-T!
(of course the appears again launching a new instance of the mozilla browser)

Actual Results:  
till step 3, a new navigator tab won't be opened
