I was just getting to the end of updating firefox on my
current/maintained systems, the last of which was an LFS-7.6 system
I'd already built 7.6 on 7.4x1, 7.5x1, 7.6x2, 7.7x4, and svn x1 so I
was not expecting problems [ 7.4 needed a newer version of libpng,
and I updated nss to current ].  But with make -j4 it failed to
compile DecoderTraits.o, with the relevant messages being:

In file included from
/usr/include/c++/4.9.1/bits/stl_algobase.h:67:0,
                 from /usr/include/c++/4.9.1/algorithm:61,
                 from ../../dist/system_wrappers/algorithm:3,
                 from ../../dist/stl_wrappers/algorithm:55,
                 from

                 from
/scratch/working/mozilla-release/dom/media/MediaDecoder.h:192,
                 from
/scratch/working/mozilla-release/dom/media/DecoderTraits.cpp:8:
/usr/include/c++/4.9.1/bits/stl_iterator.h:542:7: error: expected
unqualified-id before '-' token
       front_insert_iterator&
       ^
The only relevant items on google were for people trying to code in
c++.  So I gave it another go (with fresh source), this time with
-j5, and it was fine.  Weird.

Summary: if firefox-37.0 fails in an odd way, give it a fresh
attempt.
