I'm running 2.0rc3 but I can't seem to figure out how to reopen closed
tabs... and the "Show windows and tabs from last time" is there but
doesn't work.

Hmmm... maybe it is the build I have.

History -> Recently Closed Tabs; should be the second from bottom (above Show in Sidebar)

History -> Recently Closed Tabs > is grayed out for some reason even
though I have opened up a number of tabs and closed them.

Right-clicking on the tab bar (on a tab or on the unused area of the tab
bar) also has nothing related to Recently Closed Tabs... nor does that key
combo do anything for me.

This is after installing Firefox 2.0 from the .tar.gz release on the
Firefox website... as well as in the previously mentioned 2.0RC3 package I
had.

Weird.

Sorry, I know this isn't the Firefox support forum. :)

I think that greyed out item will be enabled when you actualy close a tab.

Ctrl+Maj+T, or right-click the tab bar.
