Workaround: the following addon is said to fix the broken tooltips (haven't 
tried it):
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1715

The guy who fixed that issue in the addon explained to me that this is because 
the "noautohide" XUL attribute defaults to off (!):
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL/Attribute/noautohide

As a curiosity, the bookmark toolbar tooltips have noautohide=true,
which makes the bookmark toolbar tooltips the only ones that work in all
of Firefox.

Somebody please fix, this is extremely annoying any time you try to
actually *read* a tooltip :-(.
