13.2-RELEASE and firefox

I installed 13.2-RELEASE in a VMware VM and can't get firefox to
start.  Everything (xorg, vmware, firefox, etc.) is installed with
packages.  There are error messages about "Can't find profile
directory." but Firefox does create the usual config directories
with appropriate permissions.  Interestingly, if I install
www/tor-browser that does work.

$ ls ~/.mozilla/firefox/
./                              installs.ini
../                             irt0vtne.default/
bka4pgd6.default-release/       profiles.ini

$ firefox
console.error: ({})
