On a standard French Ubuntu 12.04 install, some menu item labels are truncated 
in Thunderbird.
On the same machine, if you switch to Gnome classic, the menu labels are not 
truncated.

The problem happens with Thunderbird 15.0, but it already happened with
Thunderbird 10.0 (in 12.04 alpha)

In Thunderbird, open the menu "Tools" ("Outils" in French). 
The menu "Run Junk Mail Controls on Folder" is translated "Traquer les 
indésirables dans le dos..."
The menu "Delete Mail Marked As Junk in Folder" is translated "Supprimer les 
indésirables de ce dos..."

These translations are truncated. The last word should be "dossier" ("folder" 
in English) instead of "dos..."
In French, the word "dos" means "back" (in a human body). So this truncated 
translation means "run junk mail controls in your back..."!
I found it funny, but I'm not sure it was on purpose ;-)
