I haven't upgraded from NetBSD 8 to 9 and news on firefox just adds to my
inertia to upgrade.

Just curious. Which factors have led to firefox being such a mess:

- Is it firefox itself? Badly written, non portable code etc?

- Is it the rust language or libraries?

- Or is it the rust compiler?

- Or is it LLVM / CLang etc.

- Any other factors / combinations of factors.

Mayuresh
