Details

Since several weeks or so MC l10n nightly builds do not fetch any updates for me, neither full nor partial MARs.

de-DE's 20091115 build gives me with app.update.log;true:

i doublechecked with same day's en-GB build and it's the same output as of de-DE; the update.xml is empty.

running update check with app.update.log;true: on MC en-US gives me instead:

AUS:UI gUpdates:onLoad - setting current page to startpage checking

 ----------
AUS:SVC Checker:onLoad - number of updates available: 1
 ----------
AUS:UI gCheckingPage:onCheckComplete - update found

i.e. https://aus2.mozilla.org/update/3/Firefox/3.7a1pre/20091115042134/WINNT_x86-msvc/en-US/nightly/Windows_NT%205.1/default/default/update.xml?force=1 is non-empty, an update is found.

in all cases app.update.url is set default/has been unchanged.
There are snippets there for de, but pointing to the 20091117 build. Meanwhile there is a 20091118 en-US build so aus2 gets confused and this will be bug 517947. 

Effectively what you get is a reduced time when the locale updates are visible:
 * en-US nightly comes out, roughly 4-6am PST, locales stop getting updates
 * localised nightlies created, roughly a couple of hours later
 * partial patches generated very slowly, update may appear several hours later

The work in bug 511967 will help too.
