I've tested your first case (a[href=#actions]) here with FF 3.6.x : http://jsfiddle.net/addyosmani/GBwhh/ and it's working fine with 1.4.3. Your second test case is also working fine http://jsfiddle.net/addyosmani/GBwhh/2/. Tested across FireFox and Webkit-based browsers. Please feel free to re-open if you can provide further test cases that reproduce the issue you submitted.

I'm unable to re-open this ticket, but wanted to provide a test case where this does indeed fail in Firefox 3.6. http://jsfiddle.net/GBwhh/12/

It appears it's actually isolated to "live()", as "bind()" works just fine.
