1) I have no bookmarks on the remote machine, but the instance
   of Firefox that ran had all the bookmarks from my local
   machine. Also, I use a theme on my local copy.

2) 'ps' on the remote machine did _not_ show Firefox running.

And the plot thickens!

It turns out that this happens only when I _already_ have
Firefox running locally. If I kill all local instances, and then
run it from the remote machine, I get the X-forwarded Firefox.
