Just installed Firefox 4 RC 1 and noticed that the pinch to open or close (zoom/expand) do not work. I can use other gestures (like swiping three fingers to move back or forward, but no luck with the pinch to zoom or expand. Keyboard shortcuts for this function work fine (command +/-).

The pinch prefs on the about:config page have been changed in Firefox 4.
You can use these values to get the previous behavior back. 

browser.gesture.pinch.in cmd_fullZoomReduce
browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.out cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift cmd_fullZoomReset
