Details

As a systems/network administrator, I sometimes access a network appliance under
2 user IDs: administrator and as a regular user.  Firefox will not let me open
separate sessions to the same IP address under 2 different accounts
simultaneously.  The last account I login under overrides the previous login,
whether it is in a different tab or even if I open a second instance of Firefox.
You don't ever open a second instance of Firefox, just additional windows of the
same instance. This is basically bug 117222, but that one is talking about
cookies... somewhere we've got the same thing for auth prompts, but the basic
cause is the same.
