I have set Google preferences so that it will open results as a new window and Firefox preferences so that it will actually open new windows as new tabs. If I go to Google and make a search and then click one of the results I will get a new tab like expected. But if I click the next result it will not open a new tab but instead it will load the page on the tab where the previous result was.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set Google preferences so that it will open result in a new window
2. set Firefox preferences so that a new window is actually opened as a new tab
3. go to Google.com and make a search
4. click first result
5. click next result
Actual Results:  
in step 4 the new tab is opened and the page is loaded in that. step 5 doesn't open new tab but instead loads the page in the tab that was opened in step 4.

Expected Results:  
two new tabs should be opened so that the first one will load the first result and the second one will load the second result

this worked with the latest 1.5 version. I don't know if the bug has been present in all 2.0 version, but I noticed this today when I updated my Firefox from 1.5 to 2.0.0.2.
