[Bug 235900] [NEW] firefox 3 beta 5 displays full screen on start

[Taipan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

On initial start of firefox, it displays fullscreen (i like to call it
super-maximised). ie over gnome panels and without window borders.

This is remedied by pushing F11 twice, to render the web page area
fullscreen, then restore to 'maximized' status. It then corrects itself
to fit within the gnome panels (they are default top and bottom of the
screen), and displays the correct window borders (emerald theme).

I am using: 
* Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy
* Firefox 3 beta 5
* Compiz-fusion with emerald (suspect problem exists here, however there are no other apps that display the same issue)
* no Backports or Proposed Update repositories (ie default Ubuntu repositories only)
