Does this problem happen if you install a full version on top? I tried to reproduce using a full version on top but could not.
I just had this happen to me as well in Windows 7 x64.

I had previously 8.0b installed and when 9.0b came out (and I installed it), all the websites that I had pinned on my jumplist got deleted.

This happened when I updated via the internal FF upgrade system.

I have this problem as well. It appears every time you update FF. Did it today from FF8 to FF9. Had to repin all my links in the W7 taskbar again. WOuld like to have that solved as well.
