FWIW: One thing we already found and which unfortunately makes a build3
necessary is the incompatibility with the localized language packs. I
was under the impression (wrongly as it turns out) that Mozilla fixed
their versioning scheme we get with the git checkouts starting with
their esr38 cycle and forgot to doublecheck that.
