Any chance it's just a problem with permissions, either of some thunderbird
files or maybe something else related? The executable's probably ok, since
it's not giving you any error messages on startup, but it could be a related
file.
To help you debug you could try untarring it and sticking it in your home
directory as yourself, and fiddling with it there, if you're unable to help
it by modifying permissions where it lies.
