could be dupe of Bug 205591, anyway i wonder how just upgrading can vanish the
bookmarks (and if this is a bug, it only seems to hit very, very few people)

See if it made a blank file for the bookmarks. I had that happen on one install.
It kept the old file with the bookmraks but use the new blank file instead. It
was just odd cause it olny happened once for me.
