Comment:

 I did some digging and with our GCC-based toolchain this is tricky right
 now. However, we probably need a clang-based toolchain for ESR 59 anyway
 due to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1390583 and it seems
 we'd get SafeSEH when switching. Thus, it makes no sense to fix this bug
 right now for the current toolchain. We should get SafeSEH with #21777
 being fixed.
