Bug 1017903 isn't even fixed yet?! This one is a little trickier because we'd have to change the logic around to make it async. At the very least we could avoid evaluating Services.search.defaultEngine.name until this label function is called: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/chrome/content/SelectionHandler.js?force=1#661
You'll probably only run into this if the action bar is displayed before you ever type in the urlbar. So it's not quite as bad as bug 1017903, which happens during first page load. Bug 927692 would also help with this.
