We test 32-bit Firefox on 32-bit Windows 7 and 64-bit Windows 10. This test fails on 64-bit Windows 10 because 32-bit Firefox's UA string reports "Win64" but the test expects a 32-bit UA. That's a test bug we could fix to handle this WoW64 case. This test would pass on 32-bit Windows 7. On 64-bit Windows, `Services.sysinfo.get("arch")` returns "x86" in 32-bit Firefox and "x86-64" in 64-bit Firefox.
This test intermittently runs (and fails) 64-bit Windows 10 because test-verify runs appear to ignore `skip-if` annotations in browser.ini.

This test intermittently runs (and fails) 64-bit Windows 10 because test-verify runs the test in a loop and some temporary pref changes might still set when the test runs the second time.
