I'm using Firefox 10.0 Beta 2 and the bug still exists since a few major
versions.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Add this site to your bookmarks (if already delete the entry first).
2. Open your bookmark list and look at the favicon of the new entry.

The favicon is the default dashed square but the symbol should be the
green bug of this site. A workaround is to click on the bookmark entry
and the favicon will be downloaded and stored automatically. But the
favicon should already be stored if the bookmark is created.

Title:
  Bookmarks don't show favicons until clicked

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Invalid
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Firefox does not store the icon of a bookmark (favicon) if the URL of
  the bookmark and the page differ on an ending backslash.

  For example, if I have bookmarked http://www.wikipedia.org I will
  never get the Wikipedia icon in the bookmark.

  However, if I have bookmarked http://www.wikipedia.org/ (note the
  ending slash), Firefox stores the icon in the bookmark.

  However, the icon does become visible once the bookmark has been
  clicked (As of 2.x)
