the build fails during the configure stage.

configure:15149: checking for pkg-config
configure:15184: checking for NSS - version >= 3.18.1
configure: error: you don't have NSS installed or your version is too old

>How-To-Repeat:
Try compiling Firefox 38 with an older version of nss installed.
>Fix:
Explicitly mark the newer version dependency for nss. I don't know if
this is specific to Firefox only, in which case I guess it'd have to
be marked in the make file, or whether a general buildlink ABI bump
is required.
