Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:26 cypherpunks]:
 > tbb-nightly works great without SSE2 (except WebGL, maybe), so there is
 no need to hurry up with this until Mozilla decides to break esr52
 entirely in subsequent updates.

 I don't think we should take the risk that this is happening with secruity
 updates because Mozilla is assuming only SSE2 capable machines will run
 Firefox ESR 52 on Windows.
