When I use the error console, I'm seeing the same error about the undefined XML entity, and if I click on the corresponding link to view the source ("preferences: 40:1"), I then get another window with another undefined XML entity error:
Location: chrome: //messenger/ content/ viewSource. xul
Line 62, Column 5:
<key id="key_undo" key="&undoCmd.key;" modifiers="accel" command= "cmd_undo" />
