This was working for me on yesterday's nightly - I just updated to the one from today and it no longer works.

Has Fenix switched to using Beta GeckoView? If yes, you'll need bug 1540065 fixed.

Yes they updated geckoview and switched to the beta.

Shouldn't this stay open until about:config is restored?

This is expected behavior from GeckoView. Fenix does not control access to it. When Fenix nightly is released it will have access to about:config for users that have that requirement.
