Comment:
I think this investigation is done. As I said in comment:10
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1390583 has the details and
in general cross-compiling Firefox with clang/mingw-w64 is working for our
purposes. For details on how to set this toolchain up, see:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tbb-dev/2018-March/000825.html.
We don't plan to switch to clang/mingw-w64 for Tor Browser 8 as there are
likely some timeconsuming loose ends like reproducibility, DEP+ASLR etc.
support and others. The plan is to start to work on this for Tor Browser
8.5.
This includes the missing magic to compile Stylo as well. That work in
particular will be done in
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1390583.
