The Bugzilla Evo bug is now closed and that reply also solves this problem however I think it's now confirmed that FF 3.0 b3 is unable to recognize that it's not the default browser. I was lookin at the wrong gconf-key, the one I should have looked at was probably these:

/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http
/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/https
/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/ftp

(and maybe more)

I can see in the http key that it has command = /usr/lib/firefox-3.0/firefox-3.0 "%s" and this is what's the previous alpha (a8) did set.

I opened FF 2 and did a check there, it discovered that it was not default and was also able to change these values. Restarting FF 3 b3, it could still not see that it was not the default browser.

The bug is clearly in FF 3 b3..?
