I'm pretty certain that my research has shown that this problem is actually a result of Thunderbird built with support for GIO (disabled by default and not enabled in the mozilla release builds)

This is kind of the opposite to comment #19 ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=541130#c19 )

GIO actually uses GConf to lookup the url-handler which is why it still causes a GConf error, but Thunderbird doesn't own the GConf Client object, it only has a GIO Client in that scenario.
