 > The webrtc build works, however it's missing some symbols required by
 go-webrtc, such as `FakeAudioCaptureModule`, which aren't accounted for
 yet in the upstream GN build files. It seems that GN support for webrtc is
 not complete yet, as [https://groups.google.com/d/msg/discuss-
 webrtc/bcIpvWjrsxY/h3U8arVnCQAJ this message from August 10, 2016]:
 >   You seem to be setting the GN variables. WebRTC still uses GYP by
 default which may explain why you don't see any change (we're on our way
 to migrate to GN though).

 > My plan is to forget about the GN migration until the next time we
 update the webrtc upstream.

 At comment:3:ticket:21748, arlolra posted a branch that among other things
 uses GN rather than GYP. Does that mean the GN migration is finished, or
 is there more to do on it?
