After updating to Fx 20 (http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-aurora/rev/f9deba82d43b) LastTab extension no longer works at all.

I'll check error console after restart.
Nothing LastTab related found...

the extension works again if you change javascript.options.xml.chrome to true (FF restart required)

The extension have to be fixed.

It fulfills the purpose of switch to the last tab, but the pretty list of tabs is still not visible (however, I can live with that).  On pressing down Ctrl-Tab I'm getting:

Timestamp: 2/19/2013 7:57:29 PM
Error: TypeError: htmlStyle is null
Source File: chrome://lasttab/content/services.js
Line: 415
It's worth noting that E4X has been completely removed from trunk, so setting javascript.options.xml.chrome is only a (very) temporary solution.
I moved away from LastTab to Ctrl-Tab 0.21.1 extension.  It works the same way and even better.

Closing as incomplete.
