It is already explained in the instructions, and was pointed out to someone else recently on the list that you need to check the help option if you do not install recommended dependencies. I know that when I tested firefox for the release of the systemd branch that I only tested it with gstreamer installed as it is used in a number of gnome packages. Also we used make -j1 for the build of firefox, so of course it would be faster if you have multiple cores. It is only recently that Bruce decided that we as editors could use multiple cores for packages that take, from memory over half an hour to compile.
