--- Comment #21 from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl at lkcl dot net> ---
to emphasise that this is strategically becoming an absolutely critical bug:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2019/01/msg00081.html

here it has been reported that even when using -Wl,--no-keep-memory, firefox
completely fails to build on a 32-bit system.

the debian developers are presently testing cross-compiling 32-bit packages
from 64-bit hosts.

they report that ubuntu has *already* moved over to this procedure.

32 bit distributions are no longer self-hosting.

this bug is now a priority 1 critical bug.
