This is not the bug that was reported there, but the same as one issue
that has been reported afterwards in the bug log: while the autoconfig
directory lies in the GRE (/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/defaults/autoconfig)
it is trying to get the data from the application directory
(/usr/lib/iceweasel/defaults/autoconfig).
Anyways, note that you can put lockPrefs directly in
/etc/iceweasel/pref/iceweasel.js, now.
