The "problem" is that nsIBadCertListener.idl wasn't actually created by the cherry-picked commit, but was modified. It was an empty file before, created in 4292283190983fa91b875e22664a79a3aa9ea45d.

And as nsIBadCertListener.idl is missing from the xulrunner/2.0 branch, git does the usual rename detection, finding another empty file and ends up patching that one instead.
