Attached patch patchSplinter Review
The firstrun animation moves the sidebars by the wrong amount when using an RTL locale.  This is a regression from bug 655361.

Thanks for the quick fix. I didn't manage to get back last night to tell you the result of my testing, but you get it right anyway ;-)

Just a small question: is the main content (logo + "Welcome to fennec") supposed to stay immobile when the sidebars play the animation?

No. It's supposed to move with the sidebars

Verified.  

Mozilla/5.0 (Android; Linux armv71; rv6.0a1) Gecko/20110513 Firefox/6.0a1 Fennec/6.0a1
Device: Droid 2 
OS: Android 2.2

Note: This fix does not consider multiple tabs and then going to about:firstrun.  bug 653141 is a pref to put around the animation so that it only happens on a real first run.  This would make it so that you could not hit a multiple tab situation on a first run.

I forgot to copy-paste this into the Gingerbread theme CSS.  (We really need to move common code into a separate source file so we don't have to do this...)

Fortunately I don't think this will affect any users of Firefox 6 or 7, so I am not requesting branch approvals.

Around 2-3% of all Fennec users are in countries where RTL languages are prevalent, and around 25-50% of all Fennec users are using Android 2.3.  I don't know for sure how many are using Fennec with RTL localization; our metrics show the locale as "unknown" for 90% of Fennec users, and zero of the remaining users have RTL locales.  We don't seem to ship any RTL localizations with Fennec, so I think users would need to download a language pack to use one.  By the time they download the language pack they will have seen the firstrun animation already, so they still won't be affected by this bug.

But if there's a chance we will add any RTL locales to Firefox 7 before it ships, then we should request approval to land on Aurora or Beta as needed.
