Comment (by gk):

 \o/ Thanks Ray! I was about to recommend
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=932127 which does similar
 things to get ctypes going but I am glad you found it out earlier. And
 interesting that it was responsible for the crash at all as we had
 releases with ctypes disabled which worked fine... I am currently sick and
 hope to verify your results in the meantime at least. Then on Monday the
 transformation into gitian can get started...
