I'm not sure what distros have to do with Firefox working or not but I
use ArchLinux here and I use Firefox all the time.  I mainly use
downloaded binaries from trunk instead of the Arch binary because I
want latest version so I can try and keep up with accessibility bug
fixes.  In the case of trunk binaries, I just download the tarball and
extract into a firefox directory in my $HOME directory and run it from
there.  I'm not aware of any problems doing it that way.
