I have the same behavior with the xulrunner-based version under
Debian. Would be nice to have that annoying problem solved. Here is
how I set Conkeror as standard browser for Emacs:

(setq 
 browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-generic
 browse-url-generic-program "~/bin/conkeror/conkeror")

(setq gnus-button-url 'browse-url-generic
    browse-url-generic-program "~/bin/conkeror/conkeror"
       browse-url-browser-function gnus-button-url)

Greetings
