Building Firefox*on* Windows XP, however, is - I believe - no longer
supported, and in fact hasn't been since we bumped the minimum required
MSVC version to 2012, since 2010 is the latest MSVC version that XP can run.
VS2013 won't run* on Windows earlier than Win7, Service Pack 1.
I'm revisiting our docs in light of this to figure out what our real
minimum hardware/ram/disk requirements are. The temptation to start
adding "If you try to build Firefox with 2 gigs of RAM, you're gonna
have a bad time" memes to the docs is severe.

x64 only and also will never actually happen.)
