This is a result of useragent sniffing by Orkut.  Setting general.useragent.extra.firefox to "Firefox/3.6" results in the new layout in Firefox 4.

Chris, any word back from your contacts? It's moving up the charts on http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/sites

Also, I'm planning on running a beta campaign in Brazil for the Fx 4 beta--I can't do that unless this bug is fixed.

Changes are moving through testing and should be live in ~10 days.
