Hmm. I can reproduce the issue by putting the following line in /etc/thunderbird/syspref.js:
pref("toolkit.telemetry.prompted", true);

However, if I set this in prefs.js in the user's profile, after a restart Thunderbird has changed this into
user_pref("toolkit.telemetry.prompted", 2);

Changing the syspref option to "2" instead of "true" seems to resolve the issue.

Those that suffer from this bug, could you look into /etc/thunderbird/syspref.js if it has any prefs enabled? (The default file does not change anything).
