​The ESR branches accept a limited number of stability and security fixes
only. There aren't enough people testing to risk unnecessary patches. The
users of those branches are doing so explicitly for stability reasons and
don't want 'em.

In esr52 there's a bit more:

gfx/2d/DrawTargetCairo.cpp
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-features.h.in
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-mutex-impl-private.h
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-os2-private.h
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-os2-surface.c
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-os2.h
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo.h
js/src/ctypes/CTypes.cpp
js/src/ctypes/libffi/src/closures.c
js/src/ctypes/libffi/src/dlmalloc.c
js/src/ctypes/libffi/src/x86/win32.S
media/libvpx/vp8/common/threading.h
mfbt/Poison.cpp



Cairo and libffi are separate projects that still support OS/2 and are 
used by more then Mozilla.

The remaining OS/2 users would definitely not appreciate a crusade to 
kill support for that platform in upstream projects (including NSS and 
NSPR).  :-p


For what it's worth - there was a new OS/2 distribution / release just a 
couple months ago, as "ArcaOS".

libvpx is maintained upstream and updated periodically, so there's no point
making changes if they're not also accepted upstream. I don't know about
libffi; our vendored copy is a minor release behind upstream (3.1 vs 3.2.1
released in 2014).

In esr52 there's a bit more:

gfx/2d/DrawTargetCairo.cpp
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-features.h.in
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-mutex-impl-private.h
gfx/cairo/cairo/src/cairo-os2-private.h

js/src/ctypes/libffi/src/dlmalloc.c
js/src/ctypes/libffi/src/x86/win32.S
media/libvpx/vp8/common/threading.h
mfbt/Poison.cpp




I posted a heads-up in mozilla.dev.ports.os2 so they have some warning 
about the impending code removal. There is still a third-party port 
being maintained.

The bundled cairo pieces are quite far away from upstream
and ancient.

Perhaps we should kick out the bundled stuff and use the original
package (from distro) instead.

The cairo stuff is from an upstream project and not worth removing.

I've already kicked out a lot. Couldn't fully test yet, as still have to
cope w/ other breaks. But I'll move it to another branch, when I'm
trough.

BTW: BEOS could be next.

Shall I put that in one patch or separate smaller ones ?
