This is fixed with this upload:

ubufox (0.9~rc2-0ubuntu7) natty; urgency=low

  * Add patch to update for Firefox 4:
    - Rename AboutHome to AboutStartup, and have it handle about:startup now 
      (to not conflict with the new about:home handler in Firefox
    - Set default home page to about:startpage
    - Add support for the XPCOM changes in Gecko 2.0
    - In the restart notifier, don't hardcode a list of filenames for different
      browser versions, but just use MOZ_APP_LAUNCHER instead. This will
      indirectly fix LP: #511250 and should prevent it from happening again
    - Look in the new location for the restart-required trigger, it has moved
      to a location not monitored by update-notifier now, so we only get the
      restart required notification in the browser
    - Merge the plugin finder code from Firefox 4. This now uses AddonManager,
      so the MinVersion needs to be bumped
    - Drop the FF2.0 specific code
    - Drop the AddonsOverlay and associated code, this hasn't worked for
      several releases since we started using software-center, and nobody
      really noticed so far. We can reimplement this at a later date if wanted,
      but it throws JS exceptions when loading in FF4.0 now
    - Specify for the extension to be unpacked by the installer. Without this,
      the prefs aren't used
    - Get the distributionID field for the pfs URL from the preferences, rather
      than hard-coding a value
