allowed.glb-emb?

I have setup NS to allow scripts globally. I've also changed a few other settings. Normally when I hover over the icon in the toolbar it displays the text "Danger! Scripts Globally Allowed". But for certain sites (e.g. britannica.com) the text is "allowed.glb-emb" and the icon looks slightly different. What does it mean and is this a bug?
Firefox 36.0, NS 2.6.9.15 and other extensions.

Could you please show me a screenshot?

Screenshot:
It seems like this happens when OBJECT is 1 or greater.

That icon suggests that you have enabled "Options-Embeddings-Apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites too", so you're allowing all JavaScript but blocking objects.
The text seems wrong, though, and I can reproduce it.

Hmm, I wonder if this isn't just that a localization related entity isn't excaped properly? Like it's missing its leading & and trailing ; maybe?
(I know nothing of how localization works, just that I've seen similar looking strings to identify localized strings in other addons I've modified.)

Nope, the localization item was just missing from noscript.properties.
I'm adding it in next release, should read "Scripts Globally Allowed but Some Embeddings Blocked".
