I will apply the patches for bug 853776 to mozilla-aurora. The patch for that is going through try now: https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=5d0543e962b6 > Let's hope this kind of situation will remain an exception and can be > avoided in the future. The expectation should be that there will be local patches in mozilla-central and mozilla-aurora whenever those patches are the fastest way to get work done for Firefox. I will do what I can to get as many patches upstreamed first but in order for Mozilla to be able to experiment and test changes we want to upstream, to minimize disruption to the other users of NSS, we should utilize the ability to have private patches in mozilla-central and mozilla-aurora more.
