If I open a non-browser window and drag it so its x-coordinate is negative (i.e., off the left side of the screen), then when I restart Firefox and try to open that window again, nothing appears to happen. I can view the window in the Windows menu, but when I click it there, nothing happens. When I try to cycle to it with Cmd+`, nothing happens. I tested with the error console, view source, and page info windows.
If I try the same with a browser window and hit Cmd+Q on the window that is partially offscreen, then on restart only the window that is offscreen appears; the original window, which was not offscreen, does not. I can view it in the Windows menu though. If I instead hit Cmd+Q on the original window and restart, both windows appear as expected.
Part of the problem seems to be localstore.rdf. Offscreen windows have a negative "screenX" value, and it's these windows which I can't restore after restart. In the browser window case, only the browser that's focused when I hit Cmd+Q is saved to localstore.rdf. Problem is fixed after removing localstore.rdf and restarting.
Problem appears in the July 16 nightly but not the 15th's:

Which are these changesets:

Which includes at least these window-related bugs:
bug 574690
bug 575222
I'm away from my development machine, so I can't see if backing them out helps.
