Happens in the current SeaMonkey nightly:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/18.0 Firefox/18.0 SeaMonkey/2.15a1 ID:20121005003005 c-c:861e8385f731 m-c:c24a0fd08031
even in Safe Mode
Does not happen in the current Firefox nightly:

N.B. Lines 1 to 11 of the SeaMonkey about:support :
---- start ----
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html [
<!ENTITY % htmlDTD PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> %htmlDTD;
<!ENTITY % globalDTD SYSTEM "chrome://global/locale/global.dtd"> %globalDTD;
<!ENTITY % brandDTD SYSTEM "chrome://branding/locale/brand.dtd"> %brandDTD;
<!ENTITY % syncBrandDTD SYSTEM "chrome://browser/locale/syncBrand.dtd"> %syncBrandDTD;
<!ENTITY % aboutSupportDTD SYSTEM "chrome://global/locale/aboutSupport.dtd"> %aboutSupportDTD;
<!ENTITY % resetProfileDTD SYSTEM "chrome://global/locale/resetProfile.dtd"> %resetProfileDTD;
]>
---- end ----
(the ---- lines are of course added by me, they are not in the file). Line 5 of what SeaMonkey knows as chrome://global/locale/aboutSupport.dtd :
<!ENTITY aboutSupport.pageTitle "Troubleshooting Information">
There is something here that beats me.

P.S. With SeaMonkey, the error happens even in Safe Mode in a newly created profile.

Hmm, can you load chrome://global/locale/aboutSupport.dtd?

(In reply to Stefan [:stefanh] from comment #3)
> Hmm, can you load chrome://global/locale/aboutSupport.dtd?
Yes, I get a popup with choices of (a) download; (b) browse for a program to handle it. I choose "download", and then I load it into a plaintext editor.

AFAICT, the only change within range which does anything to aboutSupport.* is bug 720997; it has changes to all three of .dtd, .js and .xhtml but it isn't obvious to me how these changes can be relevant to the problem I see.

Workaround (NOT A FIX): in the SeaMonkey omni.ja (which is just a zipfile under another name), edit line 8 of chrome/toolkit/content/global/aboutSupport.xhtml as follows:
is
<!ENTITY % syncBrandDTD SYSTEM "chrome://browser/locale/syncBrand.dtd"> %syncBrandDTD;
should be
<!ENTITY % syncBrandDTD SYSTEM "chrome://communicator/locale/sync/syncBrand.dtd"> %syncBrandDTD;
(i.e. unzip, edit, re-zip) then restart SeaMonkey.
