Comment (by gk):

 Okay, interesting Mozilla folks are doubting that this is a cross-compile
 issue (see my filed bug). So, you might want to chime in there and explain
 why they are wrong. :) That said, the BrowserFeedWriter thing will be
 fixed in ESR 31 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=983845). Not
 sure about the other test you made. I did not get it to run.
