openUrl(a,b,c,d,e) could be interpretted as open the url 'a,b,c,d'
with option 'e'.
This wouldn't make any sense at all... moreover, the -remote syntax
supports multiple argument commands (mailto(a,b,c), for instance)

argument would be pretty straightforward.
Can you do {new,existing}-{tab,window} with that interface?
It is set with an environment variable or via a file in /etc/ for
mozilla (IIRC), and is configurable in firefox in the preferences.

I actually already did that. Merged with mine.

But that isn't the cause of the gaim/firefox problem, right?
Mm... that means your gaim doesn't do the same as mine... mine first
tries /usr/local/bin/gnome-load, then the program set with the gconf key
then fails. I actually had a bad configuration before trying to
reproduce this bug today, the gconf key pointing to
/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox, which doesn't exist since I upgraded
to firefox, and with that configuration, it just didn't do anything when
trying to open with browser.
Could you attach here a trace of what gaim does when you try to open an
url ? (strace -f -p `pidof gaim`)
The relevant bit follows:
write(1, gtknotify: Executing firefox -a firefox -remote
quot;openURL(http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,69773,00.html,new-tab)quot;\n,
133) = 133
access(~/bin//firefox, X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
access(~/src/src/bin//firefox, X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
access(/usr/local/bin/firefox, X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
access(/usr/bin/firefox, X_OK)= 0
getuid32() = 1000
stat64(/usr/bin/firefox, {st_dev=makedev(3, 1), st_ino=286295,

pipe([16, 18]) = 0
clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD,
child_tidptr=0xb74bd708) = 15349
which has:
execve(/usr/bin/firefox, [firefox, -a, firefox, -remote,
openURL(http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,69773,00.html,new-tab)],
