The error dialogue is telling you that some of the libraries upon which
thunderbird depends are out of date, so it would make no sense to report
your problem as a bug until you rectify that.

This suggests an underlying problem, i.e. that your system is not fully
updated. You need to open a terminal and "sudo apt-get update" then
"sudo apt-get upgrade". You will probably notice that libc6 and libc-bin
are amongst the packages that are listed to be updated.

When you've done this, try to reproduce your problem again. It may have
gone away. If not, try using apport again.

HTH,
