 > Attached are all the patches we need. I am not happy to back out the
 libraries folding one but for some reason with this patch our builds fail.
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1248552 is tracking this.
 FF45 requires {{{msvcr120}}} + C++RT or even more fun from MSVS2015.
 What is the {{{-spec}}} compiler option doing in LDFLAGS?
 What is the next symbol after {{{nss3.def}}} in your logs? Tab? Something
 that is added to {{{.def}}} extension?
