Well initially I also thought may be I should report it upstream; but when I updated Firefox on Gentoo I had no issues with personas without any profile change. So, I am guessing it is Arch specific issue.

here is the bug that made my personas not work: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=506446

basically i didn't had getpersonas.com and addons.mozilla.com in exceptions.

if that doesn't work, something similar to this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=541226
