I rather doubt that plane will be the first A380 delivered to Emirates. The first few planes off the line are test planes and differ from the final certified version. I bet the first planes delivered will be directly from the production line with all the new corrections built in. The initial aircraft will probably be refurbished later to conform the certified standard.
I remain, however, just a bit suspicious that there may be a problem with the A380 that EADS hasn't described yet.
No proof, mind you, just a "hunch".
