For example, when hovering over a link the status bar usually appears at the bottom of the browser window to show the link address, but it does not any longer. Additionally, the download indicator does not appear when downloading anything. Is anyone else experiencing these issues with the new Arctic Fox version? I tried to play around with the Status bar preferences, but it does not seem to have any effect.

With "Customize Toolbar", I can drag and drop the item "Status Text" to the toolbar. Hovering over a link shows the link address with this item.

Thank you! I also restored the download status icon this way.

One big drawback: my attempts to build PPC binaries on G4 and G5 yield to unstable results. Compilation works, but many pages make it crash.
If somebody else can build and see how it fares for him? Christian Zigotzky? Anybody else?
Afterwards, in case... debugging or at least bisecting is required.
My computers are too slow to do bisecting!
