This will be made obsolete by this change in next xulrunner release:
(xulrunner backing iceweasel nowadays)
* modules/libpref/src/prefapi.*, modules/libpref/src/prefread.*: Allow .js
preference files to set locked prefs with lockPref(). Closes: #469020.
This means that you will be able to set lockPref()s in
/etc/iceweasel/pref/*.js as you please.
