And how would this be worse than shipping a version of iceweasel which
is already obsolete? Who actually cares about iceape?
If there is no manpower to do better than this then I feel that it would
be more honest to just use volatile.

FWIW, I have been using iceweasel 3.6 since it has been uploaded and it
works *much* better than 3.5 did, which was slow and crashed a lot.
