like "Bug 1242892 - [Fennec] Wrong branding for Aurora 46.0a2 on API11 builds", this was likely bc of https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/diff/3752abafdf19/testing/mozharness/configs/merge_day/central_to_aurora.py landing before buildbot switched to using api-15. In this case, the merge logic didn't revert "-with-l10n-base=../../l10n-central" back to what aurora should be: "--with-l10n-base=.."

If I were to guess, I would imagine this is no longer a problem since we switched buildbot to api-15. However, we should delete the api-11 mozconfigs from m-c and m-a now.

will keep this open in case this shows up after fixing bug 1242892
