Comment(by erinn):

 Maybe we can just ship the "correct" libstdc++ along with our other libs?:

 Seems a bit icky to me, but it might work. I will test it in a VM.

 I'm not convinced we should ship all libs ever that Firefox depends on.
 Being able to run Firefox at all is a prerequisite of TBB, but that's less
 of an obvious hard line when there are multiple versions of Firefox
 floating around. Having Thandy get to a point where it is able to detect
 and download the correct libs on an as-needed basis sounds nice, but
 making all of the libs in such a way that we feel comfortable guaranteeing
 them is a different story.
