 While investigating #10252 I found that Firefox code is now statically
 linked against libgcc and libstdc++ (see:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831707 and
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=876416). Thus, we can avoid
 shipping them with our builds. Tests with the bundle in #10252 showed that
 it is indeed working without them contrary to the latest browser based on
 ESR 17.
