This is https://bugs.gentoo.org/645718 |
| 32 |
|

Hopefully the problem just goes away with firefox 58, which is |
| 34 |
available in mozilla overlay and should get to main tree soon (last I |
| 35 |
heard some build tests were still running before introduction to main |
| 36 |
tree). |
| 37 |
Though if warnings are treated as errors still there too, then it'll |
| 38 |
hit again at some point, I guess, unless that bit is solved for good. |
