Comment(by cypherpunks):

 Neither 0.3.0.development.1 nor 0.2.3.development.3 works. Of the versions
 available at  https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere , version 0.2.2 is the
 most recent one that works.

 In the error console, 0.3.0.development.1 gives me four warnings of the
 form:

 Warning: Ignoring unrecognized chrome manifest instruction.
 Source File: [PROFILE DIR]/extensions/https-
 everywhere at eff.org/chrome.manifest

 (the component, contract and category lines)

 and the ominous message

 Failed to load XPCOM component: [PROFILE DIR]/extensions/https-
 everywhere at eff.org/components/https-everywhere.js
