[Bug 580352] [NEW] Firefox user agent reports wrong version number -- 3.0.6 instead of 3.6.3

[Mark Harrison]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

The version of Firefox installed with Lucid reports its version number
to websites as 3.0.6 instead of 3.6.3.  This can be seen when checking
Help -> About Mozilla Firefox (beneath the copyright information),
http://whatsmyuseragent.com/, and https://addons.mozilla.org/

This is a problem because many add-ons (for example, this one:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/14228/ ) cannot be
installed on Firefox 3.0.6, even though the installed version in Lucid
is 3.6.3.  The "Add to Firefox" button is disabled with a note beneath
it saying "Not available for Firefox 3.0.6."
