Steps to reproduce: 1. Set Firefox to show the windows and tabs from last time at startup 2. Open a blank tab 3. Close and restart Firefox 4. Load anything in the blank tab (e.g. www.google.com) 5. Close that formerly blank tab Expected result: That tab is listed under History -> Recently Closed Tabs and can be reopened. Actual result: It's gone, sorry, but thanks for trying...

Drivers: The patch is low-risk and would prevent a rare case of dataloss: this bug will mostly bite people having either about:blank as the homepage or having blank tabs open when restarting during an extension installation.

It doesn't fix the whole other bug, just one of the symptoms (see bug 367052 comment #2).
