If this is an active problem then you ought to try the Forums or the standard support offered from http://www.mozilla.org/support/ .

Are you stating that there is some sort of race condition, that a Firefox or 
OS crash could occur (and erase the active Bookmarks file) at a time when the automatic backup had not been created or saved?

This report is probably a duplicate and is unlikely to result in any 
improvement to Firefox.

See Bug 249150 "Bookmarks file is overwritten (deleted) randomly in 
Firefox versions without places"
