I doubt it.  This only seems to affect the GTK2 version of the browser. 
That is, I use GTK2 versions of Mozilla, Galeon, and Firebird, and none
of them show the button change you describe.  Try rebuilding Firebird
without GTK2 support, and see if things return to the way you expect. 
If they do, I would file a bug with Mozilla.

Looks fine to me.  I clicked on Post a New Topic on your forum, and all
the checkboxes work and look as I would expect.  Do you have a
screenshot of what you're seeing?
