Firefox's private copy of NSS is maintained by the PSM module owners: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Modules/All#Security_-_Mozilla_PSM_Glue You'll need to get review+ from a PSM module owner. Just like a good QA team should not ignore critical test failures in spite of an imminent deadline, a good code reviewer should not allow a fellow programmer to cut serious corners in coding in spite of an imminent deadline. We are not talking about an Alpha or developer preview release. This is Firefox Beta 9/ Fennec Beta 4. At this point in the release cycle, shouldn't we be fixing only release blocker bugs, rather than rushing new features in?
