f11, firefox, cgi generated images?

With the firefox 3.5b4 in fedora 11, when I click on
an image attachment in a redhat bugzilla, it can't
seem to just display the dadgum image itself, it
knows it is a PNG, but insists on running an
external viewer program.

For instance the 1st "screen short" (mispelling :-)
attachment in my bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=506552

I could swear it would just open the image directly
in firefox before. Is it supposed to be this way,
or is this a bug (it has no problems opening
links directly to PNG images, it seems to be the
fact that it is provided by the cgi interface
that upsets it).

I started with a brand new ~/.mozilla directory after
installing f11, so I don't think I have any weird
settings leftover from old versions.
