Two new issues in MRTT 6.0.4 with Fx 3.6

Two new problems using MRTT 6.0.4 in Fx 3.6.  Also reported in MozillaZine topic at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=8510585#p8510585
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6

1) In Fx 3.5.7, the full pathname of the plugin is displayed in the Plugins pane and can be copied with Copy GUID.
In Fx 3.6, only the file name is displayed and Copy GUID only copies the file name.

You can still get the full pathname of the plugin with about:plugins if you toggle the plugin.expose_full_path pref to true with about:config

2) If add-on compatibility checking has been disabled, then the disabled status is displayed in the notification bar, and pressing the Enable button should enable compatibility checking.  In Fx 3.6 that no longer works.  It does work in Fx 3.5.7.  In Fx 3.6, I have to use the MRTT settings dialog to enable compatibility checking.

Here's a quirk which may be related to the bug.  Toggling compatibility checking with the MRTT settings from the Miscellaneous > XPI Install Options pane still toggles the local_install.extensions.checkCompatibility pref in about:config, like it should.  But in Fx 3.6 it's also toggling only extensions.checkCompatibility.  It should be toggling extensions.checkCompatibility.3.6.
