I'm developing a remote XUL application and use console.log()
extensively. Today I upgraded my Firebug 1.1 installation to 1.2b1 and
now get a "console is not defined" error whenever the code hits a
console.log() call.

Within Firebug I can manually enter "console = _firebug;" to get
things working again - but that doesn't persist through a page
reload.

Based on a search of this group I've also tried calling
window.loadFirebugConsole() on my page, but that gives a "not a
function" error. From what I've read it shouldn't be necessary on Fx3
anyway.

I've tried disabling all my extensions, but that had no effect. I've
also tried opening Firefox with just a single HTML page (rather than
my remote XUL app), then calling console.log() within the console
itself, but that also gave the "console is not defined" error.

Have I missed something else that I need to do to initialise the
console on Fx3? If not, has anyone else experienced this issue and
found a workaround?
