ahoy all,
first, thanks for the work and great FLOSS alternative that is IceCat. i have been using it since it was available for Gentoo and am very happy with it.
recently, when i upgraded to 7.0, session restore on startup stopped working. i am currently running 7.0.1 on Gentoo x86_64 and have built IceCat from scratch. regardless whether i use IceCat with my current profile, a new profile, or even as a new user, session restore is not working when the browser is started. the session does seems to be saved, as i can type in "about:sessionrestore" and manually restore the last session. finally, i have the preference selected (as always) to restore the previous session on startup.
FYI: i installed Firefox 7.0.1 on the same machine just to test, and the startup session restore is working.
i would appreciate any ideas for declaring this a possible bug.
