Nightly won't update on OSX since 2013-06-12
First build that is affected by this problem shows this pushlog: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?changeset=0414d6d0f60d

Unfortunately there are no tinbderbox builds on inbound old enough for me to test against.

From the relevant pushlog a likely candidate might be bug 875784
Eg. FF somehow reads the date wrong and assumes no "newer" updates exist.

I'm running OSX 10.8.4
I haven't been able to reproduce this on another OSX box running 10.6.8

Steps to reproduce:
1) download & install Nightly (older than latest, newer than 2013-06-12)
2) go to Nightly > About Nightly
3) check version - eg. 24.0a1 (2013-06-12)
4) get message "Nightly is up to date"

Expected result:
4) "Downloading update..."

(not sure I've selected the correct component for this issue, found nothing related to "Update")
