Without a running Firefox instance:

$ firefox -remote "openURL(www.xfce.org,new-window)"
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable
$ firefox -remote "openURL(www.xfce.org)"
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable
$ firefox -remote "openURL(http://www.xfce.org)"
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable
$ firefox -remote "openURL(www.xfce.org,new-window)"
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable

With a running instance:

$ firefox -remote "openURL(http://www.xfce.org)"
$ firefox -remote "openURL(www.xfce.org)"
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable
$ firefox -remote "openURL(http://www.xfce.org,new-window)"

This is strange and feels inconsistent, but FF 1.5 is crap anyway.
