I'm trying to build Firefox-38.{something}esr. Mozilla released a buggy
configure script! :o The consequence was the test for the system NSS
failed on a nonnumeric, arithmetic "test". This MAY only affect some
builds. Here's my patch as example of the fix:
[19:35 mozilla-esr38]# diff -Naur configure configure.fix
--- /mozilla-esr38/configure 2016-03-02 17:18:50.000000000 -0800

The way the script goes, min_nss_version can only be tripartite.
I'm thinking the consequence of the failure is configure has it build
the internal NSS, so you get something that does work, just not your
system NSS lib.
