Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Cross Compile Firefox for Mingw is like to insert output of /dev/urandom
 to resulting binary. Read
 [https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/mailman/mingw-w64-public/?style=threaded&viewmonth=201412&viewday=23
 that] over-~~quoting~~eagering thread. You need to keep separate fork of
 modified mingw to keep Firefox legit by cross compile for mingw.
