This happened suddenly after a dist-upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04. The buggy code is not always run; the same version of language-selector launches fine on another 13.04 installation of mine.

Anyway, running the buggy code results in a fatal error, and since it's sometimes run at the launch of language-selector (and also when running the check-language-support command), it prevents all use of language-selector.

The proposed fix is obvious and harmless. I think that a FinalBetaFreeze exception is motivated.
