Glenn,

No solution, but I've updated regularly and am now at 1.5.07 also, with 
no trouble at all including updating several extensions each time.

When installing FF and Tbird on a new machine I have been able to just 
copy the bookmark, etc files from the old machine with good success. I 
was selective, copying only the files I could identify as having my info 
in them vs those that held FF or Tbird internal book keeping items. The 
trick of course is locating the important files. If you have things 
backed up you could try this approach.
