Oh yes, sorry for the noise... the manual states:

"   -new-tab URL Open URL in a new tab *in an already running*
              Iceweasel process."

Yes, it is too early, I couldn't do it on a command line,
I had to write a script and wait 11 s (on a ibook G4 1.5GHz)

-------------------code-----------
#!/bin/bash
echo hello world
iceweasel www.google.com &
sleep 11s 
iceweasel --new-tab www.bbc.co.uk
-------------------code-----------

and then iceweasel does not complain anymore and opens the second tab.
I think you can close this bug,

Thank you Mike,

Giovanni
