Perhaps all you need is this little script I got from another g2 user. 
Just modify /usr/local/phoenix to /usr/local/<whatever>.  Name it
whatever you like and put it in your path and make executable.


#!/bin/sh

export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME="/usr/local/phoenix"
PHOENIX_PATH="/usr/local/phoenix"

# Seems like pidof resides in /sbin on some boxes
# Modifying the PATH to reflect that
PATH="/sbin:${PATH}"

if [ -z "`pidof phoenix-bin`" ]; then
        # No phoenix running
        ${PHOENIX_PATH}/phoenix $@
else
        # phoenix running - open a new window
        ${PHOENIX_PATH}/phoenix -remote "openURL($@ ,new-window)"
#    - or - ${PHOENIX_PATH}/phoenix -remote "openURL($@,new-tab)"
