The search button works for me. (same version)

Something which just started since I last updated firefox is that
I consistently get a coredump when saving a webpage. It seems that
the folder containing bits and pieces is saved correctly, but the
page itself doesn't make it to the platter. (I haven't looked at
the dump - it doesn't matter which page I try to save)
