I tested in on Linux. Animated favicons are not animated in tab bar. They are animated in tab bar in Firefox.
Can you attach screenshots of how this is shown on Chrome and Firefox as I am unable to reproduce the issue.
Screenshot does not show the problem, as it is animation we're talking about here. So I created small screencast: we can see firefox where favicon animates, and chrome where it is static.
