 We're accumulating a lot of strange bugs due to differences between our
 build machines and the Mozilla official. We should get copies of the
 official Firefox 17-ESR binaries for each platform from
 https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/17.0.3esr/ and
 run about:buildconfig on each one and then work on making our build
 options and toolchain versions more closely match theirs.

 Pasting the about:buildconfig for each FF17-ESR binary into this ticket is
 a fine first step.

 I am also going to reparent all the "WTF? Seems like a build bug" tickets
 we've accumulated to this ticket, so we can keep track of them. It is
 likely that simply making our build machines match Mozilla's will knock
 out a whole bunch of strange, subtle bugs.
