Public bug reported:

new tab page of firefox by default shows a grid of 3x3 thumbnails.
changed it to 4x3 (4 columns and 3 rows). faced no problem till version
30. with version 31, the lower row disappeared. it showed only a grid of
4x2. the about:config showed the option correctly (4x3). after upgrading
to version 32, again firefox started showing the grid of 4x3.
unfortunately, it reappeared with the upgrade to version 33. again, only
the grid of 4x2!
