I downgraded to 0.3.1-1 and the problem has gone away. So this is something added in the most recent version.

Is there any way to start a new Tear browser from dbus? the method given only starts a second window once the first window has been opened.
This python program will startup Tear, using DBUS, if it is not already running. Example taken from the PyMaemo examples page, I just modified it to run tear and not popup a massive button:

Unfortunately, Tear will not open the window with the URL passed but you get the Dashboard at least.

If it'd help, I can make the above a C program.
I did it anyway. :P http://pastebin.com/f4f4af486
