Ok, those are only startup messages and they also appear on my
system, so they're unrelated.

Sorry, no idea what's going on.

The only thing I can think of is try to strace icedove, something
like:

(close beforehand)
strace -f -s 4096 -o /tmp/icedove.trace -e clone,fork,execve icedove
(close after trying to click a link)

and then see if in /tmp/icedove.trace there's any indication of
it trying to start x-www-browser or iceweasel (note that even with
the -e clone,fork,execve filter that file will contain a lot of
things that are totally unrelated and will make the file hard to
read...).
