Only seems to have broken in the latest Deer Park trunk nightly (20060126).

As the Summary says, site icons and the tab close button no longer appear in background tabs, unless you hover over them with the mouse. The tab close won't appear unless you hover directly over it, but the favicon will appear if you hover anywhere over the tab. They disappear again as soon as you stop hovering over them.

Worked fine in the 20050125 nightly.
It is an opacity issue. 
Anything with an opacity less than 1 disappears (that affects the tabs, except the active one) and anything that has opacity set in an html document. I'll attach an html document in a moment.
Attached file test case 1 (deleted) —
There should be two identical boxes on the page. In the second one, the span(s) have the opacity set 0.8. They disappeared. Hover over the empty area and they are back.
Regression from bug 317375
Are the people seeing this using cairo nightlies? Note bug 324561.
I don't know. Is Cairo now used by default in trunk nightlies?

One thing to note, however, is that bug 324561 seems to have cropped up at least 2 days before this bug did.
I'm seeing this opacity problem both in the latest Firefox trunk and Camino trunk builds (obviously Camino is not affected by the opacity setting on the close button). None of them are Cairo enabled, as far as I know. 
about:buildconfig does not mention --enable-cairo.

this is a highly visible user experience bug - raising severity

just to mention; the favicon shows if any part of the background tab is hovered over.  But the close button of the same tab only appears if it is directly hovered over.

Is opacity involved somehow?  Note bug 325296 (mac-only).

Yes, as I mentioned in comment 1. 
for the globe icons, you have these rules:
tab:not([selected="true"]) > .tab-image-middle > .tab-icon {
   opacity: 0.5;
}
tab:not([selected="true"]):hover > .tab-image-middle > .tab-icon {
   opacity: 1.0;
}
(in global/browser.css).
Similar rules for the close button

Bah, meant to unassign it from nobody, not to assign it to mconnor, since he doesn't remember why he was assigning it at all, now.
