I haven't had that problem, but I have had a lot of odd location bar
problems from the sluggishness of the UI (I have a dual P3/450).  I'd
recommend giving the Galeon port a try; it uses the Mozilla rendering
engine, but is extremely responsive and has loads of useful features.  
You can tell the port to use your existing Mozilla installation with the
WITH_FULL_MOZILLA option.

Also, when switching between versions of Mozilla, be sure to delete your
~/.mozilla directory... lots of strangeness I have seen by omitting that
step :)
