Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubufox

  See: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=469760

  this is major and should be addressed by dropping the localized pref.

  From bmo bug:

  1. start http live headers
  2. reset app.update.lastUpdateTime.blocklist-background-update-timer
  3. open error console
  4. force blocklist update by running:
   
  
Components.classes['@mozilla.org/extensions/blocklist;1'].getService(Components.interfaces.nsITimerCallback).notify(null)
  5. check the GET url invoked

  result:

  
https://addons.mozilla.org/blocklist/2/%7Bec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384%7D/3.0.4/Firefox/2008111319/Linux_x86_64-gcc3/chrome://glo
  
bal/locale/intl.properties/default/Linux%202.6.27-7-generic%20(GTK%202.14.4)/canonical/1.0/

  expected result:
  
https://addons.mozilla.org/blocklist/2/%7Bec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384%7D/3.0.4/Firefox/2008111319/Linux_x86_64-gcc3/en-US/default/Linux%202.6.27-7-generic%20(GTK%202.14.4)/canonical/1.0/

  
  difference: %LOCALE% is replaced by chrome://global/locale/intl.properties ...
  but should be en-US

  Note: this probably busts "OS" stats if they are based on blocklist
  runs.

  Evaluation: PREF_GENERAL_USERAGENT_LOCALE seems to be a complex pref; fix 
would
  first check for complex pref and then fall back to not complex pref.
