Unfortunately the firefox update was installed by pup (running yum)
which cleaned up after itself and deleted the .rpm packages.  Removing
Firefox and reinstalling from the repository using yum from the
command line came up with the same error.

Installing directly from firefox-3.0.1.tar.bz2 downloaded from
mozilla.com gave me back a working Firefox.
I suppose I should look at bug trackers just on principle.
