Firefox still doesn't restore session after hard crash

Sometimes when power to my machine is cut Firefox does not restore the previous session. Missed to check the restore file on the primary profile, it was still there on the secondary so I just restored it there. Last time this problem came up (29, Australis Update) it was independent of profile but occurred randomly on either of them. From what I remember on any other crash (freeze, kill task) restore works fine, it's just on hard crash that it doesn't.
