Comment (by gk):

 There are two types of bugs here: a) bugs mingw-w64 has itself and b) bugs
 due to compiling with mingw is no high priority of Mozilla. I already
 encountered both: We need at least rev 5880 to build Firefox 24 ESR (not
 sure yet if that is the revision we should use, probably not) and there
 are at least two bugs belonging to camp b). Fortunately it seems there is
 already someone (Jacek Caban) that paved the way here and that did all the
 patching for us (alas his patches missed the ESR24 train). He is quite
 helpful on IRC.
