Usage of pre-2.2 Android versions has fallen below 0.1% (source), so @font-face is practically guaranteed to work on Android. The blacklisting was catching all versions of Firefox for Android.

honestly, i'd rather fix the ff issue than remove the couple bits of code.

@ryanseddon @SlexAxton thoughts?

No comments for 10 weeks. Issue #1851 continues to affect Firefox for Android users. What's next?

I took the approach I did because I think even the guarantee of false positives on Android <2.2 is less important than the chance of another UA-sniffing bug in the future. After all, avoiding UA-sniffing bugs is part of why developers choose Modernizr over UA-sniffing.
