 Compiling Firefox 52 ESR with GCC and ASan breaks (see
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1272498). Unfortunately the
 complex fix landed merely days after the code moved to aurora and Mozilla
 folks were unwilling to uplift it. We need to ship an own patch.
 Fortunately, a much simpler one is available:
