Ah. I have never installed any l10n packages, but I have my
general.useragent.locale set to en-GB. Installing 
iceweasel-l10n-en-gb fixes this.

Previously though, en-US searchplugins were shown regardless of my
locale setting. It would be preferable for Iceweasel to show the en-US
ones rather than none at all in the event of a misconfiguration such as
this; Either that or an appropriate iceweasel-l10n-* package should be
suggested.
