Only an FYI since gcc6 is in [testing]. Firefox fails to build against current [testing] due to C++ changes in gcc6. This has been fixed upstread, see [1] for a discussion, but basically one needs to backport commits 55212130f19d and 27c94617d706 for build to succeed. I verified this with FF 46.0.1 (from which I'm typing this) currently in [extra]. I'm also attaching the patch that combines the above commits...

Thanks!
