In particular, nsNSSSocketInfo::Get/Set/mShortSecurityDescription should be removed, and the calculations done for the value passed to SetShortSecurityDescription() in HandshakeCallback should be moved to the nsSecureBrowserUIImpl function that is called when the Larry UI is shown.

This would mean that we would no longer unnecessarily store the short security description in the cache either.
I believe that this will be fixed when the patch for bug 697781 lands.

I think nsNSSSocketInfo::Get/Set/mShortSecurityDescription have been removed (the only search result for "ShortSecurityDescription" is a function declaration in TransportSecurityInfo that isn't actually implemented). I filed bug 1268657 to remove it.
