Comment (by gk):
After 15 hours of building I got something to test and enabling ctypes
fixes it for me as well, nice. I was still skeptical about the ctypes fix
and made a native build with ctypes disabled. It does not crash (which
worries me slightly) but is not highly usable. So, it seems we can't avoid
ctypes easily which is kind of bad news (but will be a different bug) as
we like to disable it in the future due to security concerns.
Note to self: We should backport
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=931043
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=932127 (for proper ctypes
support)
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=931053 (for handling the
breakpad code sanely)
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=933071 (to avoid those link
hacks to get libxul linked)
+ a yet to be written patch to handle otool without link hacks.
