The root cause is removing the "-remote" option in Firefox 36:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options#Remote_Control
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1080319

I'm running XFCE and the option is used in /usr/share/xfce4/helpers/firefox.desktop.

Workaround:
replace the last line in /usr/share/xfce4/helpers/firefox.desktop with:
X-XFCE-CommandsWithParameter=%B -new-tab "%s";%B "%s";
