Hello,
I created a simple patch for the about dialog problem with IceCat 24 by
merging the defined entities from Firefox. (See attachment.) Note that I
have patched the installed file on my computer. On a source checkout the
affected file should be found in
browser/locales/en-US/chrome/browser/aboutDialog.dtd
This patch allows display of the about dialog, but I have not changed
any link locations, which continue to refer to mozilla resources.
I hope this helps others with this problem and can be integrated in the
next release.

P.S. Please CC me for follow-up questions as I am not currently
subscribed to the list.
