Seems our watershed configuration is not correct. My brothers OS X 10.6.8 laptop was automatically updated to Firefox 49.0 Beta (don't know which Beta). After restarting he was presented with an OS X dialog informing him that the software was not support on his version of the OS.

I think the expectation should be that no update is offered in any form to users on OS X 10.6-10.8.

As I understand it, Ben has already fixed this issue. 

Andrei - Do you have OS X 10.6-10.8 installed so that you can test that the update from Firefox 48 Beta to 49 Beta does not occur?
self assigning while we validate this is indeed fixed, since I'm on releaseduty.
