The new profile did have the correct version number.  Resetting the
general.useragent.extra.firefox value in my own profile fixed the
problem.

I checked my backups and the general.useragent.extra.firefox value was
modified Ant.com Video Downloader addon a long time ago while I was
using Jaunty.  I think this caused the general.useragent.extra.firefox
to be marked as "user set" and not updated to reflect new versions (I'm
assuming "user set" values in about:config are not changed by upgrades).
Even after I uninstalled the addon, the version number was never changed
through two Ubuntu and Firefox upgrades.

Thanks for your help.
