Firefox 38 and TLS less than 1.2

Red Hat released the source code for Firefox 38.  We have (or willbe
today) releasing this for CentOS-5, CentOS-6, and CentOS-7.

It does not, by default, connect to https sites with TLS less than 1.2. 
This means it will not connect to sites on CentOS-5, for example ..
there are many others.

In any event, here is a wiki article that explains potential issues and
workarounds:
