I confirm this bug. Alexander, it seems like there is a feature where after a firefox upgrade a tab is added which is intended to describe the update, as shown in the reporter's original text. Unfortunately this tab points to the wrong place, resulting in a 404 error coming up every time you start Firefox... at least for this update, that's true. I'm not sure that your proposed rewording "homepage pref gets reset to the default during upgrade" is an accurate description. In my case, for example, the saved tabs from the previous run come up, plus this 404 page, with the 404 page on top. My "homepage" is still correct.
Whatever part of the update that creates this extra tab needs fixing, to eliminate it or to point to a real page.
