Yes - I'm less than impressed with Firefox 3's handling of bookmarks. Previously I could share bookmarks between my Windows and Linux versions by specifying the location of the bookmarks file in the "about:config" dialog. Firefox 3 no longer uses "bookmarks.html" for bookmarks - that's handled by a "places.sqlite" file and there's no way of specifying its location (at least, none that I can find).
