summary sez it all. grace, would this go to Profile Manager? also cc'ing ccarlen, just in case it is... i found this using 2001.03.12.05 mozilla bits on linux [tarball, non-installer, fwiw]. asa said that he could repro this on mac, too. 1. created a new profile at the command line: ./mozilla -CreateProfile test 2. launch profile: ./mozilla -P test 3. open Preferences > Navigator panel. observe: the Location field is blank. note: however, if you click the Home button in the toolbar, you'll be taken to the appropriate, default home page, http://www.mozilla.org.
kw-o-rama.
to clarify [oops!], expected results: the Location field in this pref panel should have http://www.mozilla.org [in mozilla builds, ie, don't have access to comm bits at the moment].
tried the following with an *existing* profile [created with an older build, sorry cannot remember which offhand]: 1. renamed prefs.js to orig-prefs.js 2. launched the profile 3. checked the Navigator panel in Preferences result: once again, the Location textfield for the home page is blank. [again, clicking the Home button toolbar does load http://www.mozilla.org]
clarifying summary.
Summary: Location field in Navigator panel empty for new profiles → Location field for home page in Navigator prefs panel empty [new profile?]
prolly not a profile mgr issue.

This is mozilla only problem; unreproducable in commercial build.
I am taking this bug. I'll submit a patch.
