Comment:

 Replying to [comment:26 gk]:
 > `ln -s llvm-readobj [% c("arch") %]-w64-mingw32-readobj` is needed too
 (now)

 This is fixed in commit 893aff78867ce85a89d23cb4b9418bb03837bbca on
 `bug_28716_v2` (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 build.git/log/?h=bug_28716_v2) and I bumped the `mingw-w64` commit, too,
 on that branch (commit 9821668c3fb06c3abe502695635d3dc2f6b8a071) to match
 Mozilla.

 It turns out that the symlink to `llvm-nm` is not needed. I am not sure
 why there is in the Mozilla build script. I omitted it while adjusting the
 build script for `readobj`.

 A squashed version is available as well: `bug_28716_v6_squashed`
 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_28716_v6_squashed&id=cfbca8437407f3716d910fec71213a5013c54c3a).
