rv:13.0 (this bug) OK Gecko/20120226 Firefox/13.0a1 SeaMonkey/13.0a1 (other bugs if any, probably including those listed under comment #113). I see that there is a Fennec-specific patch which I cannot test (comment #109 and 110).

I would suggest this change: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2 Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:10.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0 This removes makes the version number less unique. Also the Gecko version could be made a bit more generic.
