Comment (by charlestonsw):

 This is how the language selector is appearing in Firefox ESR 24.7.0
 (latest rev on CentOS 6.5).

 '''What fixed it on my box?'''

 Adding a wrapper div around the fieldset and setting THAT CSS rule to
 overflow: auto; worked.

 in wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php @ wp_install_language_form() add: echo
 "<div id='language_selector'>"; just before the echo "<fieldset>\n" and
 close it out with echo "</div>" after the closing fieldset in the same
 function.

 CSS rule added to install.css
 .language-chooser #language_selector {
     overflow: auto;
 }

 CSS rule modified in install.css
 .language-chooser fieldset {
    margin: 1px 1px 0;
 }


 '''What did NOT work'''

 The problem looks like a FF bug but there are no newer patches for the ESR
 version at this point.

 The Mozilla-specific CSS hack to hides fieldset overflow but does not
 render the scrollbar.

 /wp-admin/css/install.min.css?ver=4.0-beta2-20140720

 .language-chooser fieldset {
    overflow: -moz-hidden-unscrollable;
 }

 overflow: auto;
 overflow: scroll;
 overflow-y: auto;
 overflow-y: scroll;

 And a myriad of other options are not helpful.




 HTH.
