In Cert Mgr., click Restore. After you pick the file to restore and enter your
master password, you see a dialog with this text:

  Please enter the portable security password protecting this security 
  certificate and private key. 

For consistency with the fix in bug 76736, this should read as follows:

  Please enter the certificate backup password protecting the backup 
  you want to restore.

I believe the backup file could contain a single cert or several. This wording
should work for either case.

Shouldn't it end with a period?
Yes, I will fix that momentarily.
Oops, I was patching a file that is not used in building any more :-( . Working 
on patching the correct file now.
Bradley, you sent me pippki.dtd, but that doesn't contain the strings which Sean
is wanting changed. What's the correct file?
I believe that other wording changes would be better convered in another bug. I 
will post a patch soon to fix this bug only.
Seeking r= sr= and a=
"Please enter the password which was used to encrypt this certificate."
- Incorrect use of "which". The clause is restrictive.
- The restored .p12 file may contain one or several certificates.
- Better: "Please enter the password that was used to encrypt this certificate
backup." ("certificate backup" can include one cert or several.)

I just noticed this myself, fixed in upcoming patch
r=db48x
sr=scc
a= asa@mozilla.org for checkin to the trunk.
(on behalf of drivers)
r=ssaux for PSM.
Patch checked in.
Marking fixed for real this time.
