We intentionally use the bundled libraries for several reasons - the
main one being is that this is exactly the configuration that upstream
test and do all of their QA with. Changing something like Cairo exposes
us to a class of bugs that we have exactly no support with, so this is
not something we are going to be doing

Title:
firefox does not use system cairo
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Since changeset 133625:52b02042b27f, firefox has been able to build
again with system cairo without requiring patches. This is beneficial
as the current version of cairo in Ubuntu is many times faster than
the one bundled with mozilla...
