 Ever since 3.8 on the sites where I run a localised version of WordPress,
 I get a false update notification that 3.8 is available and I need to
 update now.

 All the sites this happens to have been updated to 3.8 the moment the
 version came out.

 What happens:

 - I login to the admin
 - I see a notification that 3.8 is available
 - I click on the Update now link
 - I go to the updates page where I read that my site's up to date

 The notification shows up every once in a while, disappears after I visit
 the update page and then a couple of days later is back again.

 Here's a screencast to illustrate the issue:

 Here's a screenshot from the network administration:

 I don't think it's a multisite problem because it has occurred with a
 normal single installation too.

 The only common denominator that I can find between the sites where this
 issue occurs is i18n. All of them run the bg_BG version of WordPress.

 The multisite where I demonstrate the issue on has both English and
 Bulgarian WordPress installed.

 It also has Admin in English activated for the Bulgarian site.
