They plan on doing that change since over a year lol
And their build docs are incredibly confusing, I have no idea how distro packagers can do this.

I mean they have some form of docs, and I got it to build. But hell even installing mercurial is totally weird.
Btw, you can see the build flags your distro uses from within FF, I think it is
