An emergency update for Firefox was released today,. Firefox 9.0.1 addresses a crash upon startup after updating to Firefox 9.0 for mainly Mac users. However, Linux and Windows users were not immune to this crash either, just a lot less frequent. For more information see bugs: 711794, 708572 and 335998. This update is available for Windows, Linux and Mac users (Android and tablet users will be staying on Firefox 9.0). Current Firefox 9.0 users go to Help > About Firefox to get the latest update or you can manually update at getfirefox.com.
I am hearing, but can not see any information that there was an update pushed out for Mac users (likely a result of the crash issues upon startup with Firefox 9.0 release) earlier today.

Any Mac users on Firefox 9.0.0 (or even 8.0.1), could y’all go to Help > About Firefox and see if it offers you an update to 9.0.1 build. Update (2:10 PST): Looks like it scheduled for public release later today as…

Besides a re-spin on the Firefox 9 for Mac release there was one other issue oddity with the Firefox 9.0 update. I had updated a test profile (which is why the below screenshot looks so weird) from Firefox 8.0 to 9.0 via Help > About Firefox. Upon update the welcome page was telling me Firefox was out of date and linked to the Firefox download page which was still serving Firefox 8.0.1. An hour or so later when Firefox 9.0 was pushed out to the main Mozilla site, going back to that page displayed the message that Firefox was current.
