Why are only four of my nine thumbnails showing on FireFox 33?

more options

Just updated to FF 33 and it seems like my thumbnail screen is only showing four of my nine pinned thumbnails. Tried following the how-to page to change to classic look but pressing the gear only hid the page and did not show the the select screen. If I zoom out three times I am able to see all of them but that is just a jank way to fix it. Any idea what is happening and if FF is going to bring back the nine spaces for thumbnails?

If you want to set a fixed number of tiles, I believe you can do so with the following extension:
