I have noticed before that Mozilla likes to be run once as root on initial install. But except for some bad nightly builds I haven't had your problem. I would suggest downloading the .gz version unpacking it into it's mozilla directory then placing that somewhere like /usr/local/mozilla and point your launcher icon at this parallel installation. It's all contained in one directory so you don't gain much from the package management system. This probably will leave you with issues with the html viewer in Nautilus which I have even with a working install of .9 (debian unstable).
