I can't reproduce the problem.
Here is what I am doing:
1) Load
https://getfirebug.com/
2) Open Firebug (F12)
3) Right click (or middle click) on Documentation link at the top of
the page.
4) Pick "Open Link in New Tab"
5) The tab is properly opened.
Can you install Firebug into a new Firefox profile and check again?

Does it help?
