Comment:

 Thanks for writing all those cases up in comment:22.

 So, I think we could just avoid integrating the latest jsnativestack.cpp
 changes into esr52, given that the those did not get backported and thus
 might carry breakage risks. E.g. the fix for
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1423287 makes me sightly
 nervous due to touching the GNUC part, but my testing seems to be fine
 with it. (No, the try result done by dmajor does not change my nervousness
 factor as they very likely use a different toolchain (different GCC and
 binutils) versions than we)

 However, that's for an alpha release and I think taking the patch
 especially after the Mozilla review is fine for that. Therefore: Applied
 to `tor-browser-52.7.3esr-8.0-1` (as commit
 90e16dd25b6eb199c016fc8b5e9478a3454d36e1) to get it into 8.0a6.

 Nice work!
