After update to FF 30 I'm no longer prompted for proxy credentials

I'm using FF behind a corporate firewall/proxy which forces us to enter our user credentials when accessing most Internet sites. I just updated to v30 this morning, and immediately upon restarting all those sites were blocked with an 'Access Denied' message from the proxy saying that my credentials were missing. In the past (and with other browsers) FF would pop up a prompt asking for my credentials. Since the update to v30 that prompt is no longer being shown, I have no opportunity to authenticate, and the proxy is blocking my access.

I have tried clearing all caches, cookies, saved passwords, resetting FF, and I even blew away my profile dir. Nothing seems to be working. Any advice, suggestions, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

There was a change for Mac, but perhaps the same change affects Linux? Please see this thread from yesterday and let me know whether anything there seems relevant for your OS: "You are not authorized to view this page".

Edit: Clicking through to the article on MDN, the same issue affects both Mac and Linux users, so the workaround may well help you.
