OK, I looked through the diff between my working and buggy
~/.mozilla/firefox/ folders.

I first discovered that deleting my
~/.mozilla/firefox/xxx.default/localstore.rdf fixed firefox (and deleted
my toolbar customizations).

Then I searched through that file and found the bit that was causing
problems:

<RDF:Description RDF:about="chrome://browser/content/browser.xul#main-window"
screenX="-1"
screenY="-15"
width="1024"
height="768"
sizemode="maximized" />

I changed the X and Y to be 0 and the width and height to the size of
the content area of the pane (1022x737) instead of my monitor, and
replaced "maximized" with "normal".

Now when I open firefox with that ~/.mozilla it works as it should.

Now the really strange part... When I tried changing just the sizemode
to normal, and leaving the 4 numeric settings shown above as is... it
was still buggy (fullscreen).

Could other people try changing these settings to various values in
metacity and compiz and see what happens?
