The list of languages (ie, Preferences; General; Languages) is incomplete, yet
there seems to be no way to manually enter an unlisted language code (in my
case, mt=Maltese).

Sorry, I removed that feature to simplify the dialog. It also allowed me to
remove a ton of code. If the list is incomplete, it needs to be fixed. See bug
181541 comment 77.
Please file a bug in product Core, component Internationalization.

Please see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=310025. This is a
critical flaw in Firefox.

This is still WONTFIX. If anything's missing from the list, we need to fix the
list. So I've morphed bug 310028 into "enable Maltese".

A *lot* of things are missing from the list, not just Maltese. In particular, the script-subtagged versions of Chinese, Serbian, Uzbek, and Azerbaijani, plus a wide array of other potential tags. Removal of the user-input feature prevents users from using registered subtags to create language tags. Since the nature of language tags has changed somewhat, it might make some sense to revisit this bug and look at making this work for more folks.
In particular, see:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4646.txt
http://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/Overview.en.php
http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-lang-2or3
Also, check out IE7's list of languages for comparison.
