It appears that installing RP for the first time on Fx 4.0b7+ results in a non-working RP. There's an error about the use of `__LOCATION__`. Probably related, Fx now keeps the xpi as an archive on disk, not extracted. This may explain why an existing RP install continues working after upgrading Fx: the xpi is extracted and `__LOCATION__` works.

The full error:

{{{
