I've done a bit more debugging here.

On trunk, at startup, the events fire in this order: intl:app-locales-
changed en-US, final-ui-startup. So we get the folder names when the
latter event fires, and we're cool. All working as observed on beta.

On TB 68 I see: intl:app-locales-changed es-ES, final-ui-startup and
then another intl:app-locales-changed en-US. en-US is the chosen
language. So frankly, mozilla68 seems buggy, it advertises the wrong
language first and then the correct language after the UI event has
fired :-(

So the 68 patch is correct to work around it. I'm not sure whether we
want to land the trunk/beta part.

Axel, thanks again for your suggestion. As you can see, the behaviour
has changed, in 68 it wasn't quite correct, now it is. Maybe it's faster
to go with the workaround for TB 68 instead of trying to locate where
the Mozilla platform changed and then trying to backport that.
