It appears that Extensions.rdf is no longer created in appdir/defaults/profile/extensions and that this file is copied over to new profiles. Copying an Extensions.rdf from a zip build into appdir/defaults/profile/extensions appears to resolves this issue and zip builds are not affected since this file exists with them. This is fallout from bug 286034.

I'll do this on Monday unless Ben or someone gets to it sooner. I would like to ditch the pre-installed extensions.rdf altogether.
