How about Mozilla Firefox 10.0 on stable?

I would run the upstream Firefox in your "stable" box and see how it 
goes. If the "print selection" is not available, then Firefox's to blame. 
If it works, we're back to the system packages.

Hum... wait. I have launched my wheezy testing system (iceweasel) and the 
option *is not* there and I have a fully gnome install. Curiously enough, 
in lenny and upstream Firefox 10.0 it is present... this is getting weird.

Oh my... wait, wait, wait... the option *has been moved* to the "General" 
tab :-)
