Now that firefox-67.0 is about to be released (currently on 2nd
candidate build), I gave it a whirl in /opt.  As I expected, starting
it produced a dialog which said it uses a new profile and "does not
share bookmarks, passwords, and user preferences with other
installations of Firefox on this computer".

So, I recommend that people make a note of this information, and any
currently open tabs which they would like to return to but have not
bookmarked, *before* building firefox-67.0.

On systems with relatively small amounts of free memory (less than
2MB per-core for 4 cores, perhaps not quite so much for subsequent
cores), closing the current version and anything else which is
similarly large BEFORE the build will help.
